Book Reviews
I talked about today being our target day for finishing a book, if we're shooting for an A/B for our reading grade.
I handed out an example of a solid response to a book review question.
I showed everyone where the binders are, so people can get questions for their books when they finish reading.
I conferenced with several people today about the books they've finished, and I'll continue conferencing as needed.
