She has all the Samantha and Kit series and the first 2 in the Felicity series of the AG books.<BR/><BR/>She just got into the 3rd-Grade Detective books...we have #1 and #2 for her Language Arts program, but she learned that there are others and is very excited about them. So that's a possibility. :-)Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268005144107516108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17016503.post-21266695343671367252008-09-13T23:09:00.000-04:002008-09-13T23:09:00.000-04:00Thinking ahead to next month, does Charis like the...Thinking ahead to next month, does Charis like the American Girl series?

She picked on the prairie in the 1800s, no surprise there! I think most of this year's assignments for Charis have been non-fiction, now that I think about it...now I'm curious and will have to look. :-)Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268005144107516108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17016503.post-12184856682976931502008-09-13T14:12:00.000-04:002008-09-13T14:12:00.000-04:00Is most of the writing fiction?

We had a speaker at school that said kids need to spend more time on non-fiction writing, that in just focusing on non-ficion writing all areas show improvement. That is test scores which you don't have to worry about but I thought it was interesting thata few minutes everyday of non-fiction writing helps in all areas.<BR/>Sounds like everyone is doing well and enjoying learning. Keep up the good work everyone!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
