Shelf Challenge - Week 2

This week was not a successful one for me with the Shelf Challenge.  Other teaching obligations, deadlines, a whole day visit to another school to experience their High Ability programs, a sick child, and you-name-its all got in the way. 

Excuses, right?

Well, yeah... 

But I'm feeling good about this challenge!  My goal is to get through 5 shelves during the month of April and during the first week I managed 2!  (That counts for this week's, right?!)

I know that I will be able to carve out a bit of time this next week for shelf #3 and will be able to get right back on track.  There are gems to be discovered and outdated books to weed.  

Onward and forward...reading!
