Author: David Shannon

Title: Eyewitness Books Car

Author: Richard Sutton

Topic: History of the car

Grades: All classes

Comments: We talk about the history and workings of cars – from the horseless

Carriage to the modern supercharged car.

Pair and Share Topic: This year for national library week our theme was Driven to Read. At the bringing of the year we had all the students color a car and write the name of a book they like (and drawing themselves in it). We hand out bookmarks with the theme on it, and a reading record chart. If they fill out the chart they received a prize. And we find on the inter net some paper cars that the students could have.

Grades: All classes

Comments: We had a lot of fun with this theme
