Lemony Snicket: The Bad Beginning....

So, last week we read the first and second chapter of our new novel study. What do you think of it so far? It was pretty action packed in the first chapter, wasn't it?

Name one of the characters we've been introduced to so far and tell me what you think of them.

In the book it said it's not going to be a happy story at all, it was going to be a very sad story. This allows us to predict some aspects of the book. What predictions do you have for the next couple of chapters?

This is Halloween, this is Halloween, Halloween, Halloween!

Holy Busy Week Batman!

Call of the Wild!

Our new novel study is going to be The Call of the Wild by Jack London. We've been discussing Jack London's life and have been previewing the vocabulary of the book so far this week. Today, I want you to write a short prediction of what you think the book will be about. Your prediction should be at least 5 complete sentences.

Reading, reading, reading!
