This is where we will give feedback on our reading each week. This will help us work together to become the expert readers and writers we want to be.
Every week I will put up a new post with a different question about what you are reading independently. Sometimes the question will be about our class text (such as The Outsiders), but mostly it will be about your independent reading. I hope you have a lot to say and share about your favorite books. You will respond by adding a "comment." The comment counts as your blog.
This week's post should be a minimum of 100 words (if you need help counting, you can paste it into Word and it does it for you).
Please write me an informal letter (Hey, Mr. Kerwin!...) about your summer reading. Try to answer some or all of the following questions in your response, or feel free to add additional information on your own: What did you read? Did you read a lot? Did you enjoy it or dread it? What were the books about? What genres did you gravitate towards? How did you choose your books? Did you go over the requirement?
Happy blogging!
Mr. Kerwin
