Hi
My pet peeve are the teachers who say you must read a book with 100 pages
if you are in a certain grade let's say grade 3, 150 pages for grade 4
and 200 for grade 6 etc. That is how the kids select their books. At my
previous school the teachers respected my judgement and if I said the
book was ok it was. At this school, we have many teachers who do not know
literature and are insecure when it comes to selections. Somehow, they
view this as a safe and sensible way for their students to get a hard
book.I keep trying!!!! I win some and I lose some. Paulette
