Writer's Notebook: Why is reading important? What benefits does it have? What downsides does it have? How would you describe yourself as a reader?
Students shared books from their summer reading today! Four students in each class shared a book that they enjoyed. We will hear about more titles tomorrow.
We continued our discussion of theme with two new pieces: an excerpt from Anderson Cooper's nonfiction book Dispatches from the Edge and the opening passage from Laurie Halse Anderson's YA novel Speak. We have one more selection to look at tomorrow before we begin writing about our findings.
