Parents.Guardians and students,
Thank you for coming to this year's Celebration of learning and for your interest in our class! Here is a preview of what is coming up this semester: We just finished reading Shakespeare's The Tempest! We finished a group project about the play today in class and tomorrow we have a test on Act V. Next week we will start a new whole-class novel, The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I am excited because this is the first time this book has been taught at our school - we even had to borrow the books from another school in the district. I chose this novel because of its incredible themes, the tale of growing up, and the adventure! I think you will like it. Another novel we are going to read this semester is Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. They just made a new movie out of this book last year starring Michael B. Jordan - but the movie is not very similar to the book. It is the story of a future where fire fighters do not put out fires - they start them! Soon we will also be writing a new type of essay - the informational essay. This gives you a chance to hone your research skills as well! I look forward to the rest of the year with you! Ms. Naylor |
