Week of October 5th

Long-term assignments: We will go to the library on Tuesday, 10/6. Students will check out their book report novel for the second nine-week period. The genre for the second nine weeks must be classic literature or historical fiction. Students must finish the novel by October 30, giving them 3 1/2 weeks to read the novel. They will take an AR test for the novel and write an essay report in class. The two grades will be averaged together. Happy Reading! Students should always have their novel in class. Unfortunately, students receive a conduct mark when they do not bring their novel to class.
