This week we began our new unit, the novel What Girls Learn by Karin Cook. This is a great book that, out of all the books in our reading list this year, is the only novel that is specifically categorized as a "young adult" novel. We viewed an introductory Power Point in class that outlined the unit standards and objectives, class assignments, and reading schedule (unit calendars that outline all of the due dates and reading schedule for each day will be available in class on block day.) This was followed by some discussion of some guided reading questions and some in-class reading time. By block day, please read to the end of page 42. Also, remember to fill in your chapter summary charts as you go...you can use these for quizzes!
