35559 Well done Janine - I swear with the number of books you read (which is amazing) - the amount of "bookkeeping" you have to do is also amazing. We sure appreciate you.

35559 Yeah this was a hard word!
Amanda I think that new one works for Orange. In fact, with that one, tineye also pulls the 50% orange, so we don't have to measure (which my math brain gets tempted to do). Ha that would have been a good story problem for my students.

35559 Here's the information about "musicians" for the other bonus:
Read books written by or about musicians. This could be non-fiction about a musician or band; or it could be fiction - in which case the main character(s) should be a professional musician (or aspiring). Someone who plays an instrument for personal pleasure only doesn't count.

35559 Oh boy...color covers. They always make me feel like I should go back to kindergarten because I can't identify colors!

Nanci, I'd agree the first two you listed are plenty orange and the third isn't quite enough.

Just using MY eye, I feel like #1, 8 and 9 look orange to me. #4 and 5 look orange to me too, especially when I look at the bigger covers. Tineye says they are pink, but tineye can be crazy.

For color covers we can just use team consensus and we are supposed to use common sense - i.e. looking at a book and thinking "yes, that cover is mostly orange." So feel free to chime in with opinions and books!

And hooray for needing only 5.

35559 Yes it looks like next round it'll be bonus points for if the main character or author is a musician (we can do 10 of those) and then 5 orange covers.

35559 I stuck Round 5 in our planning sheet - I think we can rock this last round! I haven't seen an announcement, but per the sheet the bonus task is MC or Author musician. And our cover color is Orange!

Although - let's finish strong with our Vuvuzela for this round!

35559 Oh just logged in - that is good news! Trumpet has WAY easier letters.

Thanks Janine about the "Checking it Twice" heads up :)

Nanci - given it's finished and marked as read and the situation, we can use the book. Thanks! Adding it tonight is fine.
