Last Independent Reading Project

7th Grade Parents,

 

The final independent reading project is to read a book in a genre of choice and compose two 400-word letters/emails to me about the book.  The first letter/email should be written at the halfway point in the book, and the second should be written when the book is completed.  Each letter/email should be 400 words and should be approximately half summary of the text and half personal response (opinions about characters, predictions, things you notice about the author’s style, connections, et cetera). 

 

Letter one is DUE on or before MAY 15, 2012

 

Letter two is DUE on or before MAY 29, 2012

 

Students who earned a 3 or a 4 on the NECAP this past fall are exempt from writing the letters, but are still expected to read a book and be ready for an informal assessment(s) on that book. 

 

Thanks,

 

Abby Wald
