Hello my name is Cayla Green. I am a rising senior studying Elementary Education. As long as I can remember I have always enjoyed reading. Reading allows me to escape and enjoy an adventure that an author has created. Many of my reading experiences have been awesome. I always had teacher that truly engaged in the book, which helped me to truly understand what was happening with the characters throughout the story. My grandmother was also a school librarian, she always shared with me books that helped to grow my love for reading. I hope that in my future classroom I can create a environment that fosters the love of reading and that I help children find books that they will love for ever.
One of my all time favorite childhood books is Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs written by Judi Barrett. This book allowed me to go on an adventure to a world where the weather consist of different types of food. I liked the creativity of this book, the plot was very engaging and allowed the reader to truly immerse in the characters storyline. I hope to read this book to my future students to help spark their curiosity in to different types of books especially fantasy books like this one.
I think all kids love this book! Humor is a great element to engage even the most reluctant readers. Thanks, Cayla.
