Stirring Up Memories

Stirring Up Memories is one of the reading stories in our Treasures Reading Book.  It is about the author Pam Munoz Ryan, her life growing up, and what it is like to be an author.  Since this story falls at the end of the year, I have the students write about their second grade memories.  I also print out a group picture and a recent individual picture of the students.  I let them create a scrapbook page with their pictures.  I always enjoy reading the stories and reading what we did that stood out to the kids.
