Lenses on Reading

I can't say enough good things about this book.  If you are a reading coach, literacy professor, or interested in getting a reading endorsement...you should read this book.  I want to use it as the text the next time I teach Theories and Models of Reading.  I loved the clear writing, the chronological layout of reading theories and the practical application to the classroom.  Buy it!

Museum of Curiosity

Visiting local children's museums is one of our favorite things to do.  For my son's birthday we tried one that recently opened called the Museum of Curiosity.  You have to go at the right time of day or it can get pretty crowded but we had a great time with the hands on exhibits.  

This was a piano that played music with bubbles.

A whole city with a laundramat, theater, stores, houses, and post office.

This room was really neat with buttons to change the instruments, tempo, rhythm and record the song.  We spent a long time in there.
