Today the students spent our usual Philosophy time reflecting and assessing their work so far this semester, in preparation for conferences next week.
Homework due tomorrow: A book review of at least two paragraphs (5-8 sentences each). Please email it to Liz before 8:30am or put it in the blue tray in the Main Room when you get to school, because we are going on an Art field trip tomorrow morning.
Use this blog to see what we did in class today, to access handouts and other resources, and to check in about homework.

Guidelines for Book Review Assignments
(due every other Thursday, beginning Feb. 4)
1. Your review must be on a book that you have read within the last six months.
2. Every OTHER review may be on a graphic novel.
3. Your review must be at least two paragraphs long, and may be longer.
4. Each paragraph must be 5-8 sentences.
5. Review must contain enough of a summary so that someone who is reading your review, but knows nothing about the book, will get a good sense of what the book is about. However, it should not be all summary; a review is mostly your opinion of the book.
6. Don't just state your opinion- explain WHY you feel the way you feel about the book.
See the link below for some examples:
