My bad for not updating this over the weekend. Sorry. As of right now, you are not going to be having any assigned weekend homework so long as you are reading 20-30 minutes daily (including on Saturday and Sunday).
HW due Tuesday:
1. Just Right Choice Fiction Novel
...Have your just right fiction novel in class tomorrow. This should be a fiction book that is a good fit for you (this includes graphic novels), that you have never read before, and that you can finish within 1 month. If this is going to be in class tomorrow you should communicate that with me before 8:40 am and have a plan for how you are going to get this book.
If you are still struggling to find a good fit book you should check out some of these options here: Books Middle Schoolers Should Read (I have many of these in my classroom)
2. Quote - Bring in a quote you stand for or a quote that you think best represents the way life should be lived.
...This quote can be written down, typed, printed. It can be from someone you know, someone you look up to, someone who is no longer living, or someone who is currently living (including your own self). It can be from a song or from a fictional character. It should be middle school appropriate. This quote will live on our wall all year long. Make sure you are willing to stand by it!
Here are some examples of quotes if you are struggling to come up with one: http://brightdrops.com/inspirational-quotes-for-kids
If you want more time to think about it you can have it as long as you let me know tomorrow before 8:40 (mjansa@pps.net).
