Reading Enrichment News
This week we are starting "The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Throughout the unit we will be reading other types of literature and connecting the literature to the overall theme of the unit: change. What causes change? Is change predictable? Is it always positive? During the unit, students will be asked to complete mini-projects, answer literary prompts on the blog, and complete workbook pages. It is very important that students stay on schedule and do not fall behind. Please contact me if any problems or concerns arise during the unit!
