Homework 4/22 - 4/26

READING:

Read for 35+ minutes in your JUST RIGHT book and log at HOME each day . Remember to stop and jot down your thoughts you are having and IDEAS you are growing. Put all of your post-its in your reading notebook.

Read to your goal for historical fiction first, then read from your JR fiction side book.
Make sure that you are prepared for your book club meeting by jotting:

• the setting-what does it look like and feel like
• is trouble brewing?
• creating a bulletin board
• creating a timeline of Personal and Historical events- how are these events impacting your character? How is your character responding to these events?
• what are you learning about your era
• characters
• Various perspectives
• lens of power

Use Booksource or Scholastic Book Wizard to create a list of non-fiction JR books within your topic. Start gathering these books!
