Independent Reading

Quarter three independent reading assignments should be finished up this week in order to stay on schedule! After you have finished reading and annotating, start on your Review/Analysis. If you're stuck, here is a sample of a written analysis and here is a sample of a podcast. Both were completed by students this semester and are good examples of what I would like you to do.

After grades for Q3 are submitted, I will be putting in "Missing" for all unfinished reading assignments.

You can still turn them in for full credit, but I am putting them in as missing to encourage you to finish so you have ample time to select and read your Q4 book!

Need some inspiration?

and this list, with a very creative title

If you need ideas or book suggestions, see me! I am loving the podcasts and reviews I've received so far!

*Disclaimer: I have NOT read all of the books on these lists. I encourage you to do your own research before choosing a title to make sure it is the right fit for you. I am a huge believer in the idea that finding the RIGHT book is what creates a lifelong thirst for reading. Good luck!
