Home Lessons (Week of 3/16)

First, please continue working on your persuasive essay.  I have uploaded the peer review form; please use it to review your own essay. I understand that you won't be able to share the essay with a classmate but I would still like you to use it to edit your own essay.

 

Secondly, please begin your search for your Award Winner novel.  Your novel must possess one of these awards which can be found on the cover of the novel or above the summary of the novel on the back cover:

Printz                 Hugo              Nebula             YALSA 

 

Carnegie

Pulitzer

National Book Award

Man Booker

Edgar

 

The Printz, Hugo, Nebula and YALSA awards winners are novels geared to young teen readers.  I will include a link to Amazon and Barnes & Noble to help you search for titles.  

For my 2nd period ELD-C students, it is appropriate for you to search for books that have the Caldecott or Newberry Award on them but please look for one that will challenge you.  If the Caldecott or Newberry are not challenging, please look for books that fall in the Printz or YALSA catergories.

 

Do not forget to check AR to ensure your book has a test attached to it.
