This blog is the start of a new book club at
SMUM Studio 17 (Santa Maria Urban Ministry). Each of the older children
in the after school homework program has the opportunity to check out a book
from Studio 17’s book shelf, read it, then give me an oral report. Prizes are
offered! Credit will be given for each book read before Christmas break.
Prizes to be paid in a Target gift card.
The books we are starting with are:
- James Howe The Bunnicula Collection
reader: Abigail – started 6 Nov - Madeleine L’Engle A Wrinkle in Time
reader: Stephanie – started 6 Nov - C.S. Lewis The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
reader: Jose – started 6 Nov - Christopher Paolini Eragon
reader: Robert – started 6 Nov - Tamora Pierce Alanna
reader: Leslie – started 6 Nov - Tamora Pierce First Test
reader: Jocelyn – started 6 Nov - Louis Sachar Holes

Some of the SMUM Studio 17 girls and I were playing with the
Make Your Own Kaleidoscope
software toy. Here are the pictures they made with images of themselves:
