A Community of Readers


One District-One Book Postscript, February 11, 2011:

Our "Princely Party" on February 9 was a terrific event! We had over 90 participants who played Little Prince Jeopardy, designed royal postcards, created magnificent crowns, flew paper airplanes through the desert and planted very special flowers. After the activities, we gathered in the Palos South Commons to distribute raffle prizes and view videos showing student projects. Many thanks to everyone who participated in this One District-One Book Community Reading Project!

Our chapter activities, podcasts and quotations will remain online in this blog for everyone to enjoy and for other schools to use or adapt. Please take some time to view our student projects on our district website.

Chapter 12

Chapter Podcast by Mrs. Karen Wysocki, Palos East Reading Specialist 

Chapter Quote:
"The grownups are certainly very, very odd."

Think & Read:
Why is the tippler ashamed?

Optional Activities:
People are often ashamed or discouraged by their own bad habits such as biting their nails, eating sweets too often, or not exercising regularly.  Sometimes they make New Year's resolutions to change their own behavior, to stop bad habits or to begin practicing good habits.  Draw a picture or write about a good habit you would like to begin to practice.
