In-Class Independent ReadingReading is thinking, and it requires concentration and quiet. Therefore in class, you are expected to read the WHOLE time during independent reading and WITHOUT distracting yourself and others. This means NO talking, NO bathroom breaks, NO water breaks, and NO visits to the classroom or school library.
At-Home Independent ReadingYou are expected to read as much as you can each night. A minimum goal for a middle school reader is 20 - 30 minutes each night.
You may be required to complete Thought Logs at home. You will complete 3 lengthy Independent Reading Projects - one for each trimester. |
