For the next four weeks or so, we will be reading our first whole-class novel, Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist. This is a new book for our school - I taught it for the first time last year and I picked it because I think you will really like it! It is also a good way to practice our literary terms, learn about the Hero's Journey, and to practice annotation and cognitive reading strategies.
