Earth Hour and YOU?

Reading a "Forest" Full of Books!

Who is reading a Blue Spruce, Silver Birch or Red Maple book?
I am! Ms. Zeitz got me started, and she's waiting to help you, too. Go ask her about these great books. I want to see if my favourite book wins over all the others - don't you? And you can VOTE, if you can read!

It means you'll have to read all through January and beyond. The 2008 Voting Day is April 23.

Check out this website: http://www.accessola.com/forest2008/ Find the link over on the right..

Right here, on this blog, let's use this place to talk back and forth about these books. When you've read one, click on comments right under this post. Write the title, the author and the "tree" the book belongs to. Advertise the book if you liked it, or give it the thumbs down if you didn't. Make sure to give your reasons. I'll post your opinions where everyone else can read them. Your view could make a difference in deciding the winner!

HELP! I Want to Write a Story!

I really love to write. I write my own personal journal, I write your lessons, I email my friends..... but I don't get to write many stories. Often when I think I'll get started on one, I find myself saying, "I don't know how to start....what should I write about?"

So, I need you to help me. Click on comments, and think up and write a 3 or 4 sentence story starter...about anything you'd like to hear a story about. I'll look over all your ideas, and pick the one I find exciting, to finish. I'll write and write and write, and post the finished story with both our names on it. Anyone can comment on the story when I'm done.

So how about it? You can't lose - I'll be doing most of the work! Let's see what we can come up with, together!

Thanks, Deb
