The bio vocabulary was switched to the comm, co, counter and contra sheet due to the informational text we are reading as background to “Jeremiah’s Song”, which we will read in class tomorrow.
Reading: One page book report Graphic due on April 2. Students will report the title, point of view, characters, setting, basic plot, theme and style. If you are confused by the term please use your literary terms handbook in your literature book or the interactive literary terms handbook on the Glencoe.com site that we have used in class to look up the term as using the dictionary term may lead you astray.
If you have lost your report form, enter the information onto index cards, one term per card.
