Independent Novel Study

Well, aren't these crazy times? I feel like I'm living in a dystopian novel right now! Speaking of reading here is a refresher about our independent novel response never-ending assignment. Students in 8D and 78 should always be reading and responding. I usually start every class with 25 minutes of reading and during that time I conference with students about what they are reading or what they are going to do for their novel responses. After reading, students are asked to the following:
1. Write a brief summary
2. Do a character analysis for one of the main characters in their book
3. Complete one of the creative choices from the options provided.
