the
potential
for
bringing
together
ideas,
images,
content,
vocabulary,
language,
and
arts
in
the
minds
of
any

Read

can
be
a
strong
supporting
structure
for
literacy
learning
across
the

day
and
can
strengthen
students’
abilities
and
achievement
in
many
subject
areas.
Reading

a
practical
way
to
expand

to
accomplish

‐
based
goals
in
four
key

Favorite
Books
from
Childhood:
Student
Reflections
The
reflections
are
excerpts
from
student
blog
posts.
The
students
responded
to
the
prompt:
Write
about
a
favorite
book
from
childhood.
My
favorite
book
from
childhood
is
Marvin
K.
Mooney
Will
You
Please
Go
Now,
because
it
shows
you
pictures
and
of
how
you
will
think
he
will
leave.
Dr.
Seuss
is
a
great
author
that
made
the
books
rhyme
and
make
sense.
This
book
also
is
for
kids
to
know
how
to
spell
and
write
the
words.
Also,
the
book
has
pictures
that
use
a
creative
way
to
show
what
the
author
is
talking
about.
I
chose
this
book
because
it
is
easy
and
you
can
understand
it.

We
all
have
our
favorite
childhood
books.
Mine
were
the
Junie
B.
Jones
books.
I
loved
all
of
her
books,
but
one
of
my
favorites
is
Junie
B.
Jones
is
a
Beauty
Shop
Guy.
When
I
was
in
4th
Grade,
I
remember
reading
these
books,
and
how
it
took
me
more
than
a
week
to
read
one,
but
now
I
read
them
in,
like,
15
minutes.
It
is
amazing
how
things
change.
Now
I
read
books
that
are
300
pages
or
longer.
Junie
B.
Jones
books
are
only
about
70
pages.
These
books
were
my
favorite
because
the
author
literally
writes
in
Junie’s
perspective.
For
example
if
Junie
does
not
know
how
to
spell
a
word,
the
author
just
writes
it
the
way
Junie
might
think
it’s
spelled.
She
makes
reading
her
books
fun
and
enjoyable
for
little
kids.

I
love
the
story
of
Cinderella.
It’s
everything
a
little
girl
imagines.
It
has
love,
family,
and
a
happy
ending.
I
like
how
the
author
makes
it
funny
and
unrealistic
but
what
I
don’t
understand
is
why,
out
of
all
the
other
animals,
he
chose
rats
to
be
in
the
story.
Girls
don’t
like
rats,
or
mice.
Another
thing
that
I
would
like
to
know
is
why
the
author
chose
for
the
stepmother
to
be
wicked.
Why
couldn’t
her
father
have
died
and
her
stepfather
been
wicked?
In
all,
the
word
choice
and
adjectives
the
author
used
is
very
remarkable.
He
didn’t
choose
very
hard
words,
making
it
seem
like
he
was
only
trying
to
capture
young
audiences,
but
still
made
it
appealing
to
older
audiences
too.
