Personal Reading Books Semester 1

Many of you have expressed the desire to choose your own books and to increase the amount you read, so we will be choosing our personal reading books for the semester. 

Today, you heard a book talk from Ms. Luhtala about a variety of books to choose from, and hopefully, you've decided on one.  You should bring this book with you to class, as we will have built in reading time.  You will have a book trailer project at the end, so be sure you're staying up to date with the reading.  

Tonight's Homework:  Post a brief paragraph of why you chose this book.
