Each quarter the students will be doing a book report.  Students can find these books at their local public libraries, but some students will want to purchase books from the following listing.  Students should read books on their own time and finish them by the assigned date.  Book reports are usually due six to seven weeks after the book check.  Deadline dates and instructions for each book report will be given in class.  Throughout these weeks, please, remind students to continue reading their books.  On the date the report is due, students will write in class a report of the book. Students will be instructed in class of the guidelines for each book report. The book report will be graded as a test grade for writing and composition.
