Summer reading plays an integral part in your academic and personal development. In continuing to read over the summer, you will keep your reading skills sharp, build your vocabulary, and become stronger writers, while reading about topics that you enjoy on a personal level!

 Your reading will need to be completed over summer vacation, so that you will be prepared to discuss your chosen novel during the first week of school. As your teachers, we will be assessing your knowledge and understanding of the reading you have finished over the summer. To help as a processing and memory aid, we encourage you to keep a reading journal summarizing important events, characters, and personal responses to make a stronger connection, and gain a greater understanding of the text. You will be evaluated on your novel well beyond the terms outlined on spark notes or other shortcuts, so it is imperative that you read the novel in full, as this will be your first English grade for the new school year.

 There are a number of ways to obtain a copy the novel you have chosen (the public library, Borders, amazon.com, etc.), and it is your responsibility to do so. Start with the library, but don’t be afraid to ask around, or order books with your friends as a group to lower costs and eliminate shipping fees. You will be choosing a novel in your English classes, and will sign up in the library.

 The left hand column of this wiki has a list of possible novels from which to choose. Read through the book summaries and watch the youtube clips provided, and decide which book seems most interesting to you!



Happy Reading!!
