Our new group of Dolphin Readers began meeting a few weeks ago. This week, students worked on advertisements for this year's NCSLMA YA Book Award vote, which will occur during the month of March. Students were challenged to write a 2-sentence review of one of their favorite books from the list. Below are their efforts . . .
