No, you are not hallucinating......Two posts in two days! I think that qualifies as "on a roll!" Just a quick general announcement: I saw Courageous the other day. Awesome movie! You need to see it! One of only a handful of movies I've ever seen where the entire theater gave it a standing ovation at the end.
So...anywho. Back to "business". This year I started something new with my class called Mystery Reader. I carefully select our Mystery Reader and send home a Top-Secret invitation along with a questionnaire. Our first Mystery Reader was the grandfather of twins in my class. The last one was our "custodial engineer". So really, they never know what to expect. I then use the questionnaire to come up with five clues. I give them one clue each day leading up to Friday, and they carefully record each clue on their form. Just before I introduce the reader, they are to record their final guess. Then, I bring in our Mystery Reader, and he or she reads either a book they brought from home or one I have already chosen for them. It has been so much fun!! Who will I choose next?..........dun dun dun......
