[aisle] reading club ideas?

[DEANNE GUCCIONE]

I do a monthly book club during lunch/recess time.  The students have an
option to purchase a Jimmy Johns sub.  I provide the chips and drinks.  We
usually do an activity with the book or play a game.

"The truth is-the whole truth is-that it's not the last day that matters
most.  It's the ones in between, the ones you get the chance to look back
on.  There the carnation days.  They may not stand out the most at first,
but they stay with you the longest."  Quote from *Ms. Bixby's Last Da*y by
