Frindle: Nick's Teacher

What do you think of the character of Mrs. Granger. Isn't she SO mean to make kids write I am writing this punishment with a pen 100 times? She must really want kids to call frindles by their real names - pens!

What do you think about this? Is she right to insist that kids use the correct word, not a made-up one? Why is she making such a big fuss about this? Is she just horrible? Or is she just doing her job?

One Book/One School: Frindle!

This is the fifth year we've had a One Book/One
School celebration at New Hampton Community School! By now, you  all have your family's book and the packet with the calendar and the trivia questions. Maybe tonight, you read a little bit about Nick Allen, the main character. What kind of a kid do you think Nick is?

The setting for Frindle is a school in New Hampshire! Maybe Nick's school is like ours! Frindle is a wonderful story that will have you cheering at the end. I liked it so much, I'm going to read it again!

If you need extra copies of the materials in the take home packet, click here! And what's that black pen for? Hmmmm.......
