HELLO CLASS OF 2020

I hope you are having a wonderful summer. Do not forget to take God with you wherever you go, and of course to read, read, read!!!

See you in September! 

Here are your summer reading instructions. Please do not email me your presentations until I ask you for them. We will be working on presenting during the first weeks of school, however, they are NOT due the minute we walk in the door.  

SUMMER READING INSTRUCTIONS
 You will be reading two books for class this summer.

1. Book one is a non-fiction book. You may select any non- fiction book that interests you. Be sure to choose a book that makes you think – a book that you can react to in some way. When we come back to school, you will give an oral presentation about the book. You may create a power point presentation to use during your oral presentation. You can use notes and make the presentation without a power point as well. Use a reader's journal to keep track of your reading. Starting the first week of September, be prepared to tell the class about the book you have read including, but not limited to, the following questions.

1.       What interested you about this book?
2.       What did you find surprising?
3.       Why you chose this story?
4.       Tell us about the main characters.
5.       Can you relate to any of them?
6.       To whom would you recommend this book and why?
7.       Can you tie the story you read to any current event? 

You may use music and you can insert a news piece on the current event.  

 
2. The second book you are reading is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.  Be prepared to participate in activities based on the book in September.
 
During the first trimester we will also read Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck.  You will be assigned specific days to read this book.  You do not have to read this during the summer.  You do not need to purchase this book.
 
Sometime in February, we will read, Night, by Elie Wiesel.  You will receive specific days to read this book.

I am working on a new novel to add to this year. Can't wait!

If you have any questions during the summer, feel free to email me!
