Getting Started--SSR Challenge

Over the long weekend I read all of your feedback surveys from last week.  The most common message was that you wanted more time to read--music to a reading teacher's ears!  Your wish is granted...

Today you are going to choose your next independent reading book.  My goal is for everyone to finish a book before the holiday break (in 3 weeks).  Please fill out the "Practice Form" below to tell me how you'd like to read your next book.

Welcome

Hi 8th Graders!  I've created a blog to use for our Reading class for the rest of the year.  I know, I'm a biter, but we've got some smart, talented teachers at our school and why can't I learn from them too?  Check back on this blog regularly for class assignments and other cool reading-related things.  I'm excited for a fresh start in Trimester 2!
