ENGLISH 8

Reviewed assignment on next book, A women’s issue novel written by a woman.
You can choose from my classroom library, the school library, the public library, bookshelves of friends, family and others. You can choose from  the writers on the list I handed out, or other writers. If you have a book to show me on Wednesday, you can have extra credit. The sooner you have the book in hand the better. 


The book and your final project must be completed by March 29. It involves interviewing three generations of women about the issues raised in your novel. No vampire books. No Stieg Larsson books. ("He's a guy, BTW) No teen angst about boyfriend books. Fiction. Check your book with me. If you think it is a bit too adult in situations and language, check it with your parents and with me. We both reserve the right to say no.

Soundtrack assignment is due tomorrow. Make sure to also hand in the soundtrack worksheet.

If you were absent Friday, please make up The Book Thief test asap.
