HI,
I went to Catholic School in the 60's and my teachers would read to us in
the afternoons for the last 15 minutes before scholl was let out. Miss
Therese (twin of Miss Rita) in 3rd grade would read us Hardy Boy mysteries
which I loved since I felt funny to check a Hardy Boy out since I was a
girl. Also, Sister Joyce in 8th grade would read us short stories and
other
ones like the Diary of Anne Frank. She would walk up and down the
aisle and
read the story in her clear and warm voice. What memories!

My 5gth grade teacher, Mrs. Hahn, reading Tyll Eulenspiegel stories.
Must have been the cleaned up ones. Going to find them as an adult, I
was astonished. She also read one of which I can only remember one line:
" ... if I have anything to say about it -- and I do -- ..." said
the
queen.

Okay--I'll chime in!
Through
much of third grade we had a substitute teacher, so I
don't
know who read to us--but someone read Mr. Popper's Penguins (still a
winner!)
and I believe that was the year we listened to at least one of the Little
House
books.
Our
fourth grade teacher, Miss Lane, read more educational,
sociologically based books--most of them lost forever from my mind, but
Strawberry Girl by Lois Lenski was certainly one.
Mrs. Warner in fifth grade was my all time most-hated
teacher--BUT
she's the one who read Charlotte's Web, Beautiful Joe, Black Beauty, and The
Black Stallion all of which have really stuck with me through the years.
Go
figure!

I remember Mr. Stacer, our 6th grade teacher reading A Wrinkle in Time.
I
loved that book and have since reread it and have read every book by L'Engle
that I could get my hands on. She is my all-time favorite
author.
