I Love to Read Month

Bamber Valley students were invited to read The One and Only Ivan (a children's book based on a real gorilla who lived in a shopping mall for most of his life) for I Love to Read month.  Doesn't it sound like a great idea?

Well, it goes something like this...
STEP 1- We tell the kids to get their jammies on and go to the bathroom around 5-7 times
STEP 2- They are messing around or fighting about who gets to go in the bathroom first so we raise our voice and threaten no story
STEP 3- They can't find a blanket or a snuggle toy so they look around for it
STEP 4- We tell them to get in Claire's bed right now so we can start reading and they start laughing like crazies and can't stop
STEP 5- Nick or I read while we give them death stares for laughing, messing around and being in each others space

ALL smiles for the camera, though!  WORTH IT
