Here are the books students have read for their Sticky-Note book reports. We will do two during the semester.
For the first one, you must read the book and annotate it with at least 50 Sticky-Notes. You will turn the book in with the Sticky-Notes for me to grade. The final assignment will be to give a 10 minute (minimum) book talk on your book. Follow this guide.
For the second book, you will choose (hopefully) a book that sounds really interesting based off of the book talks from your classmates. Then you will choose one topic from the book to research. The final assignment will be to write a 6-8 page hyperlink essay based on your research topic. Follow this guide.
