Friday Feb 14–or whenever we go back to school

I hope you are reading while you are out.  We will be going to the library on Friday.  My reading classes will need to complete another novel by March 2.  You may read any novel on a 5th grade level or above that you have not read as part of another teacher’s reading assignment or class at any time.  Challenge yourself to read novels that are longer and more complicated.  Your muscles only grow when they have to work.  Your brain is a muscle–make it work.
