About Me
- Stenson
- Teaching 7th grade at OGMS was a great gig, but now I'm the Dean of Students at SAMS. Reading and books is still the best part of my job. And the kids are pretty cool too. By the way, in real life, I go by ABS Kujawski.

Hi Ms. Stenson, it is Tyler
I have been reading all summer and it is the first summer i have ever read more than 2 books. This was my summer list and i am still going : So.B.it ( again), looking for alaska ( i started but just could not stick with it ) ,maniac magee ( i could not get through this one either ), House on Mango Street, Fahrenheit 451 ( i am reading this right now ), Go ask Alice ( this book is next )
i am reading with my future sister in law and we go to the library together. So i thought that you would be happy hearing that my library card is maxed out! :)
well i will talk to you later, email me if you would like, i would love to hear your response.
P.S. is your birthday on saturday?
August 2nd right because that is my birthday as well.

Wow, it's been a while just wanted to say hi and to tell you that I have been reading quite a bit his summer, I just finished Breaking Dawn, fabulous!!! Stephenie Meyer is an AMAZING author. When you first told us about Twilight way back in 8th grade I just rold my eyes and never thought I could get so hooked on a vampire love story. But I'm in love with the books and I'm sad that it has come to an end. I would recomend them to anyone. I just can't wait for the movie now!! Well only kinda, it's just that I pictured some of the characters differently. Oh, well.

Miss Stenson!!! I dont know if you remember me but it's Elizabeth Wolner =) anyways, way back in 8th grade I borrowed your copy of "THE GOLDEN COMPASS" and unfortunately I discovered that I never returned it to you!! I feel terrible!!! I am going to try to come in this o8-09 school year and return it to you. I have been reading a lot this summer and am working on the list for Honors 10 this year!! I am reading THE ONCE AND FUTURE KING. JANE EYRE is next!! I miss you and I hope you are still enjoying teaching =)
I'll check back later!
bye for now!

Wow! Tyler! Lizzie W! Beth A!
What a surprise. I'm so glad to see you on my blog. PLEASE, PLEASE, puh-leeease tell your friends to get on. I love hearing from you.
1. Tyler. I'm so proud of you. Kido to you for reading all summer. I love that you have a reading buddy. I read somewhere that kids who have at least one adult to read with and talk about books with are a lot more likely to read throughout adolescence. Good for you. The titles you are reading are awesome (even the ones you put down). The House on Mango Street is better when you can talk it over with someone. Enjoy the others too.
Plus, try those others again. Especially Looking for Alaska. But wait awhile, I just think you'll enjoy it someday...but no reason to read books that don't interest you.
Lastly, Aug. 2 was my bday. I had forgotten it was yours too. Happy Birthday right back at you. I was at Ms. Sbrocco's wedding on Aug. 2. Yep, she's hitched! She looked beautiful, the day was lovely, and the couple is very happy. Hope you enjoyed the day too.
Hi Beth! I am so happy to hear you loved the next Twilight series book. I heard some girls are sad it's over, but it sounds like you really enjoyed the last one. I can't wait to read it, but I must say, I'm two behind. What are you going to read now?!!?
Lizzie, Lizzie, Lizzie! Don't worry about that book at all. Stop into OGMS sometime after Aug. 25 and I should be there. But not in my old room...I'm teaching 7th grade reading now, so you have to go downstairs. I'm much more excited to see you than get my book back, but it's nice of you to remember.
Love to see you all on th blog. I'll post something new so you and your friends can stay in touch and talk books, books, books.
Much reading love to you,
Stenson
