Today Ethan and I continued with parallel reading. We started with an article about Jackie Robinson. Then together we read the book "Diary of a Wimpy Kid-Third Wheel". We also spent some time discussing summer reading. Ethan admits that he does not like to read. We discussed the importance of reading over the summer. He says he will try hard to read at least one book over the summer. I will confer with his Language Arts teacher and send a short list of suggested books to his mother. He said he knows he's going into 4th grade and will need to "step it up a notch" for the next school year.
