Well summer started a few weeks ago. Then we returned to spring and rains then August showed up with heat and humidity. Just in case that was not enough the weather spirits threw in a few storms. I am waiting on snowfall to add to the mix just to round out the move through four seasons in a matter of a few weeks.
In 72 days we will be back in school with the darlings in the halls. You know it will be sweltering by then and probably stay nice through October. But who is counting? Let's enjoy the couple months and let the weather be what it may.
Summer reading is always a good leisure time activity. Sophomores have several a choices and one is the Color Of Water. Good selection and interesting literary techniques of movement backward and forward in time and with the view point of different characters. If your 10th grader has not selected his/her boom yet, this might be one to check out.
By now the juniors and seniors have read a couple from the summer reading list. Will talk about some of those later. The summer is a time for renewal, reflection and relaxation. Might be the vitamin D from the sun or the change of pace or just having some more daylight hours. Never forget the family time and the creation of memories and stories to talk about years from now.
