Today, we'll be starting our independent novel unit. Lots of wonderful books and projects to choose from. If you were away today and have one of these books at home, please read the first 30 pages and especially if the school gets closed due to snow, keep reading 30 pages per day (more if your book is large)
Cat's Eye or Alias Grace by Margaret Atwood
The Stone Angel by Margaret Laurence
A Complicated Kindness by Miriam Toews
Book of Negroes by Lawrence Hill
April Raintree Beatrice Culleton
Who Has Seen the Wind W.O. Mitchell
Life of Pi by Yann Martel
Gum Thief by Douglas Coupland
Homesick by Guy Vanderhaeghe
Svoboda by Bill Stenson
Crow Lake by Mary Lawson
I'll be collecting the poetry manuscripts today. Can't wait to read them.
I have your cross-grade tests marked. Will return your compare/contrast paragraphs soon.
Enjoy the snow.
