And the winners are...
The Mock Caldecott and Mock Newbery club did a wonderful job reading a variety of books to select their winners.

Two 2nd grade classes and two 3rd grade classes listened to the 14 books on the Mock Caldecott list and then critiqued the pictures and words to decide which one deserved to win the Gwin Oaks Mock Caldecott Award. Students were also able to connect via Skype with other Mock Caldecott groups in Florida and Maine.

​Mock Newbery
The Mock Newbery Award was decided by a class of 4th graders. I met with them once a week to discuss and blog about the books. Students read from a list of 10 books and even connected with one of the authors, Jennifer Jacobson, author of Paper Things.
