Congratulations to the following students for completing the Fantasy Reading Challenge for the month of January.
Addyson H Emmett R Valeria G Spencer D Janie B Vada W Brooklyn D Emily A Lilly S Amana C Daniel A Brooklyn S Jasmin O Charlize B Ethan J Kholbie S Chloe G Grace S Kyle C Emmy M Penelope H Sydney M These students read three books from the fantasy genre between January 5th and February 8th. Mrs. Wallace is happy to announce that we more than doubled the number of students meeting the challenge this time around. Mrs. Wallace loves to participate in these challenges right along with the students. She decided to pick up the second book in The Reckoners series by Brandon Sanderson titled Firefight. The 7th grade reading lunch bunch read book one Steelheart a couple of months ago. It was an action packed page turner, and Firefight was even better than the first one! If you enjoy the super hero genre, go pick up this series. Brandon Sanderson is a master. Mrs. Wallace then read Fires of Invention, the first book in the Mysteries of Cove series. This book was recommended to her by a student when he learned of the fantasy reading challenge. It was phenomenal! Mrs. Wallace will write up a complete review on it soon. She also read The Book of Three, the first book in The Chronicles of Prydain series with Brooklyn Shurtliff, a 7th grade TIS student. It had a slower start, but both enjoyed the quirky characters. Mrs. Wallace felt like it had elements of Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Once Upon a Marigold. Our new challenge is with the genre of realistic fiction for anyone that wants to participate. Mrs. Wallace is hoping to get at least 35 students to complete the challenge.
