WELCOME STUDENTS!

This is a place for us to discuss openly and honestly the literature we are reading. Here we are all just communicating our thoughts on what we are reading. There are no right and wrong answers. However, you are expected to be polite, mature, and on topic.

Earn extra points on summer assignment


If you would like to earn up to eight extra points on your summer novel assignment, you may write a biography about the writer of the work you read. Find 3 to 5 sources and write a 500-800 word biography of the writer's life. Include internal documentation of your sources and a Work Cited page. (Your research paper notes should help you document.) Type the paper in font 12 or 14, double spaced but no extra space between paragraphs, with title. Use 1 inch top and bottom margins and 1.25 right and left margins. Place in the back pocket of the folder.
