January 2, 2013

Literacy Development will be continuing to work on vocabulary based on common prefixes. We will also be reading the novel "Monster" as a class in order to introduce "signposts." This is a technique for teaching reading based on a new book by Beers and Probst. I hope that it adds a new dimension to the reading by these students.

Period 3 will also be reading a novel in order to learn the signposts. This will be our first class novel, and I look forward to it.

English 10 will be reading "Of Mice and Men" with a focus on understanding theme.
