Good Morning,
This year our theme is "Count your Caudills". (2 years ago it was "Catch a
Caudill").

We have the students talk to us when they finish a title. We ask them about
the book, maybe a question or 2. It's nice to have a face-to-face
conversation about the book. After they finish the first book, we give them
a paper book. They add their name, the sticker of which book they finished,
then add it to our Caudill wall. It's great for them to be able to see what
others have read. And, we can keep track of who has read at least 3 so they
can vote in February. I've included a photo from this year and 2 years ago.

Have a great Thursday!
Patti
