Submitted by david.thacker on

Students in Ms. Nielsen's classes have been reading and reading since the beginning of the year.  And last week, one class topped the 200 book mark!  That means so far this year, they have read 200 YA books as a class.

Ms. Nielsen reports, "Each of my six classes has topped 100 books so far, one topped 200 this week, and two more are almost at the 150 mark."  She predicts that before the end of term 2, both of these classes will also hit the 200 book mark.

Students are now busy writing book reviews on some of their favorites.
