You should be about halfway through the book that you're reading with your adult. Please bring it to each class.
2.1: Due on Feb 4th, please hand in a letter to me which details/discusses what you think about your reading with an adult book so far. What do you think of the characters/issues/problems/events? Do you connect to it personally at all? Remember - when we discuss books we always want to go beyond the obvious - to make connections and read between the lines.
1.3: Due Feb 3rd: a short, 4 line "goodbye" poem. It can be fiction or non-fiction, angry or loving, sad or happy - whatever!
