Hello and Welcome all future 5KP Students and fond hellos to my lovely 5KP class of 2009-2010 as I know that you are more likely to read this first.
For those of you that know and love Ralph Fletcher, you may be interested to read an interview he did recently about the new book he has written, ‘Pyrotechnics on the Page’ that I found on one of the blogs I follow, “A Year of Reading“. Check it out here
Here is something Ralph Fletcher says in this article that I strongly agree with:
“First, I think strong writing contains an element of surprise. Wordplay–the surprising, unexpected effect that happens when words rub together–is a great way to create surprise.”
If you would like to read more about Ralph Fletcher, or a few other favourite 5th grade authors, check out by blogroll under authors.
I look forward to getting to know my new students in just
the barefoot librarian 
Whoo! I’m a student from 5KP 2009-2010! To any new 5th graders reading this, you WILL have fun in this classroom.

Mrs. Power!!! 6th grade is soooo hard! It is so easy to get lost. Also, it’s so annoying walking to all the classes from here to there! I came this morning to see if you were in your class room but you weren’t! I’ll check again tomorrow!
