Great Books, Celebrations, and Starting a New Leaf

Here we are in the beginning of a new quarter, and it looks like our reading competition with 6th block is fairly close.  Look at the fall leaves; they are close to the same number.  You can thank some of the avid readers in our class.  From this point, you have an opportunity to blog about those titles you have claimed, and you may start today.

Title today's post by including the title of your current book.  Give us a short summary of what you've read so far.  You can include page numbers if you'd like.  Find and post a picture that somehow connects with the storyline, a character, or something the book reminds you of...If you include a picture of the cover, you still need to find another picture or work of art to post for your visualization.
Next, include a short passage that stood out to you.  Be sure to discuss how the quote fits in, who said it and to whom, and what it all means to you.

Last, you can discuss your reading so far this year, titles of books, book discussions and so forth.  From now on, to claim a new leaf, you must have posted about that book to this blog!

Happy reading, blogging, and TGIF!
