Today I went to the Niagara Street Elementary School in Niagara Falls to congratulate Mrs. Cimino's 2nd grade class. They made it to the top three for the contest! For that, they won $750 in books from Buffalo Books and More!
Everyone in the class was given a bunch of cool prizes and we all read Dr. Seuss' classic book Horton Hatches The Egg (which explains everyone's elephant ears in the picture).
I love reading, so I was happy to get the chance to go and congratulate and meet them. For the record, the book I'm reading now is Doctor Who: Ghosts Of India (based on the TV series). I've got a couple other Doctor Who books I'll be reading soon and then V: The Second Generation. Can you tell I love science fiction?Thank you to ALL the classrooms that participated. And keep reading - especially my blog. :)

Thank you, John Anthony, for visionting our classroom to help us celebrate our exciting news as third place winners in the Read Across America Contest. The children truly enjoyed hearing Horton Hatches the Egg, and the Horton "ears" were the best part!!
We'll display the photo you took on our smartboard next week, and we'll tune in to 102.5 for our daily exercise!!
Thanks!
