Jan 17 - Class discussion on Terabithia - As a class we have decided to abandon this book due to finding out Ms. Everley is also about to start reading it. We are going to start White Fang as an alternative.
Today we discussed the setting of the story and pets. Do they have any? How do they feel about them? How many? What kind? Jan 18 - We began reading White Fang. The vocabulary is very rich so I am taking it a little slow to explain some of the terms to get through the Intro. We discussed parts of the book as we read. Jan 19/20 - The class worked on social skills activities with peers or completed any work from other classes as a study hall.
