2. Good Word Quiz Monday, Good Word Sheet will be due on Tuesday.

3. Rough draft (#3) of your personal essay will be due on Monday.

4. Literature Circle responses due.  (One-two page, double-spaced, in paragraphs.)

Your final written response will be due on Monday, 2/19. You must respond to the entire book, not just the passage you read previously. Discuss elements of the book you liked, disliked, things that surprised you, things you agreed or disagreed with, character development, conflict, the author’s writing style, etc. These are all things you will discuss in your weekly responses, but this is a response to the whole book. In this response, I would also like you to reflect on the experience you had in literature circles. Some things to discuss are as follows: what went well, didn’t go well, what role did you most enjoy or find rewarding, what was difficult, how did you and your group solve conflicts and deal with challenges, what was it like to set your own schedule and assignments, what did you learn etc? Go into detail and be specific.
