Next Ladder
All right halfway through our year. We have
taken some time and examined the books we have read. Now I would like to have
us take some time and examine the books we will read in the future.
The Next ladder will help us to focus our
reading choices for the rest of the year, and hopefully help us to think of
books that we will like to read as the year goes on.
4 steps to complete your next ladder:
1. Genre: find at least 2

amazon, or scholastic to find the books on you ladder.
