Treasure Island-Inspired Compass Treasure Hunt

Post by Rebecca Reid 1 Comment

I’ve recently finished reading Treasure Island in the original and unabridged language with my son.

They spent plenty of time on the beaches of Treasure Island, and both my son […]

Goal Setting Compare Contrast Writing

Post by Rebecca Reid Leave a Comment

In Tia Isa Wants a Car and A Chair for My Mother, kids work towards earning money for a goal.

Mentor Monday: Poetry Learning with Joyful Noise

Post by Rebecca Reid Leave a Comment

This week’s Mentor Monday is about poetry picture books for kids, the same as last week’s subject. I realize I’m two days late here; it has been a crazy week in terms of getting any free time. Nevertheless, it’s almost good we waited, because I get to write about what we did this morning: learning […]
