SO FAR THIS YEAR.....

SO FAR THIS YEAR.....

So far this year you should have:

1. read  Bud Not Buddy  or  A Paradise Called Texas

2. turned in signed Course Outline and signed Classroom Expectations sheets

3. taken home your Holt Literature and Language Art book and the Holt Handbook

4. filled out the top of your first Reading Log, including the due date - Tuesday Sept. 2

Remember to write a brief summary and record how many pages you read. If you don't have your reading log with you, write down the pages on a sticky note and add them to your reading log later.

5. put the Book Report Schedule in the Language Arts section of your binder with the due date of your first book report, an award winner, filled in - Sept. 29 

6. put the C.T. Spelling List in the Spelling and Vocabulary section of your binder

You should have also written down that the test on this list will be next Wednesday, Sept. 3. 

7. decided 7th grade is going to be the best year yet for you and that CT ROCKS! (especially Language Arts and Creative Arts!)

SUMMER READING ASSIGNMENT

SUMMER READING ASSIGNMENT

Welcome to 7th grade language arts! I am very excited to get to know you all this year. 

Just in case you lost your handout with the summer reading information, I am including it here for you.  We will start working with the novels Tuesday, September 2nd. 

Summer Reading Requirement:

You are required to read one of the following novels this summer. However, I guarantee you will enjoy them both. I also hope you read more than just two books!

           A Paradise Called Texas by Janice Jordan Shefelman

            Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis

 You have no formal assignment to complete with the books, but I recommend you keep a  reading log, or use a system that works for you, to help you remember what the book is about. We will do assignments with the novels at the beginning of the school year.

Bonus activity: Keep a list of books you read over the summer. Include the author’s name and how many pages each book has. If you make a poster or do another creative activity with your list, you get to start off the year with extra points! Whoever reads the most books (verified by a parent or guardian) will win a book of their choice.
