Hello Fabulous Readers,

This year we have a great list of books to read for the [|Massachusetts Children's Book Award]. I often feel frustrated that we don't have an easy, fun way to share what we think about the books on the list. We've tried writing short reviews on note cards, but after the first few they stop rolling into the library. I'm hoping that this wiki will allow you to post your thoughts and respond to others' whenever you have access to a computer.

Getting Started

1. Log into drmlklibrary wiki with your wikispaces password. 2. Click on the title of the book you want to discuss. 3. When you get to the book page, you can click on the book cover if you want to learn more about the author, or you can go directly to the "Discussion" tab and start writing your thoughts about the book.

Your teachers have taught you how to make: Use one of these prompts to get started, but feel free to write about anything in the book that you would like to share with other readers.
 * "text-to-text" connections
 * "text-to-self" connections

Use Wiki Etiquette
