Journals
Students will periodically have journal entries to complete which are related to the novel or unit we are reading. Entries are completed in the students' notebook and or sent electronically.
Journal entries are usually assigned once a week, with a different topic each time. I typically ask for approximately 12 sentences as a response (about 2 paragraphs).
I read and check these entries, and they count towards each student's marking period grade.
Journals are a great way to share what we think and how we feel about what we are reading and learning!
