My Literature Circles (small, independent reading groups) always finish their books at different rates. One of the groups was reading Because of Winn Dixie, by Kate DiCamillo. The book features a "List of Ten" things about the central character's departed mother. To provide an additional example of a list of random facts about a person, I showed the kids this blog entry, and asked them to write their own lists about themselves. So you have definitely boosted your meme tagging quota today. We shall see if the kids think of anything interesting to put on their lists. Today, you tagged at least six 7th graders.

I better not do my own random facts — I don’t know if I could stop once I got started.

Julsie — good to have Bookworm back on-line.

I haven't been able to take it since college when I had roommates who built an altar (using my Christmas nativity scene, thank you) and burned incense practically every night. Give me a nice, smelly candle (but no floral smells, those reek). Thanks for playing.... Ah, incense.
