I hope you had a restful, fun-filled break. Congratulations on the food drive win! You make me proud. And, you make me a champion.
Today, I shared some of the titles of good books I read over break. The best ones were Trash by Andy Mulligan, Love is the Higher Law by David Levithan, Carter Finally Gets It by Brent Crawford, I Will Save You by Matt de la Pena, and Please Ignore Vera Dietz by A.S. King. All of these books are available from our school library.
After we talked about books, I handed back the "show, don't tell" writing samples students completed before the break, and then the class wrote narratives about their break. These narratives will help me identify the components of narrative writing we still need to address in class, and provide good practice for the Composition section on the government exam.
