getting bridey inspired.

Well, Bridey has been inspired to read more thanks to Lawanda and her girls! Thank goodness! I've tried to get her to read more but this summer has been no good. She didn't want to at all. But now that she read Lawanda's post about her girls she went right in and picked up a book, she is even taking notes so she can write a book report for me.
While the school year is in she reads quite a bit because she likes doing the accelerated reader program and then when she was in her summer program last month she was reading a book a week there, it was reading arts program so they focused on reading and activities dealing with the bocks they read. So that was good. But she just wouldn't read on her own, now thanks to Lawanda and the girls she (at least for today) has started reading just to be reading. YEAH!!
Now if we can just work on the math! lol

That's AWESOME!!!! I'm glad she started a book! :) My kids love to read no matter what time of year. Although they didn't read much when they were swimming everyday! LOL Are you going to do the blog thing too? :-D

I had thought about it and even tried it set her up one but for some reason yesterday it wouldn't let me. Everytime I put her password in and the word verification it would just go backto the beginning. So I gaveup after 10 minutes or so, I'll try again today and if it doesn't work she can just use her myspace for something besides socializing!
