- The Outsiders- Ch1
- HOMEWORK- read chp 2 of The Outsiders
The first thing we did today was we chose the blog background. It is a super duper cool robot for now.
Now we discuss and review the summer assignment. The assignment is due next Monday. The book list is on Mrs. Jacobson's page. So sad she had to leave us, but now we have super duper awesome Ms. Nakada. We breifly discuss the form it is to be written in and the finer points. (Format of Ms. Jacobson's page.) To those whom did not read a book on the reading list, any book you read over the summer will do.
READING LOG
Table of contents: Tittle, Author, Date, C/A (completed or abandoned)
First Semester Reading Plan: 6 books, 2 can be re-reads, and 4 must have an AR test, and you will have to do book projects on any 4.
A good reader always has a reading plan so now we we are now disscussing the books we would like to read during this semester.
Example on how to write a reading log below.
1.1 The Outsiders pgs. 1-18
Ponyboy walks home from the theatre, when he gets jumped by the Socs. His brothers and friends come and chase them away.
1.2 The Outsiders pgs. 19-37
And so on. These summaries should be short and sustinct cutting to the main points. It is okay to include narrarators observations and introduce other characters.
And it is the end of class. So long.
