What I'm Reading...AND...GIVEAWAY!

I love having time {and energy} to read in the summer!  Throughout the school year, I try to read but I end up falling asleep, so I give up!  
My summer reads this year are Daily 5 and CAFE.  I have heard about this so much, but never have done it.  So, with changing to 2nd grade for the upcoming school year, I thought what better time!  It was first on my list, so I could get this started right away next year!
I'm really big into whole brain teaching, so I want to reread my book, Worksheets Don't Grow Dendrites.  I was fortunate enough to get to attend one of Marcia Tate's workshops, and she is AWESOME!!!  
If you want to see what others are reading this summer, head over to the Linky Party at Clutter-Free Classroom!


NOW...about my Giveaway...
I don't have too many more to go to have 300 followers.  
When I do, I plan on a HUGE giveaway!  If you know someone that you think would enjoy my little blog, send'em on over.  The sooner, the better.  I can't wait to hold my giveaway!
AND
Be watching for more details soon!
