ALBM suggestion and a statement on how Movies define a generation

ALBM: I used double-sided paper in my book--you don't have to in yours, but be prepared to glue your pages together or to decorate your blank side with rubber stamps or other embellishments.

Now for a funny: The computer-animated "Alvin and the Chipmunks" movie is very popular among the 4 and 5 year olds in my classroom. Overheard today:

"You farted!"

"Nope, that wasn't me"

"Well, I didn't do it"

"Maybe it was a chipmunk"

"No way! Chipmunks aren't real!"

...Um, maybe you need to get outside a bit more kid. Turn off the movie and just go outside.
