Summer Adventures in Reading

Yesterday I went to the Chicago area to train teachers in Burbank, IL on Summer Adventures in Reading. It is a wonderful summer reading program for grades 1-5. There are 6 weeks of instruction for a total of 30 lessons. Each level has the same theme each week making it easy to do a theme related activity with the entire school at the end of the unit.




After the training, Susan, the sales rep, took me to Chuck's. I recommended the restaurant because I remembered it was located in Burbank, IL. I have eaten there several times in the past and have found the food to be pretty tasty. Chuck's is an interesting place with a variety of menu items including yummy BBQ, Tex Mex, and New Orleans style food.

Ken is traveling this week for his new fire inspection job. He continues to have all of his other responsibilities at work, but has recently been added a new role. He leaves for Boston this afternoon and he will come home late tomorrow night. Next week he is off to California. I guess I need to change the title to: "Where in the World is Jennifer and Ken?"
