Trimester Book Project
Each trimester, we will be assigning an open-ended book project. It is an opportunity for you to get as creative as you like. If you have difficulty with the broad scope of the project, see us and we will guide you in selecting a project that is just right for you.
You may not do the same project twice, and you may not use the same book twice.
Be sure to keep logging in your independent reading each week on your spreadsheet. This spreadsheet not only allows me to monitor your reading progress and selections, but as a shared doc, it also provides your classmates with possible titles for them to read.
You must clear your idea with us before you begin to work on the actual project.
