So...how's that summer reading coming along?  Not so great...well I understand.  Sometimes the hardest thing about reading outside of school is that you are, well, OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL!!!  No, really, all joking aside, we teachers know that trying to wade through literature in the middle of July can be an almost inhuman task, especially when there are no teachers to ask questions of and no other students to discuss the books with...

Well, your search is over!  This blog will make your summer reading assignments so much more worthwhile, and you will be able to have that feeling of discussion and information that you would normally get inside the classroom.  It will be like having ME right there beside you...all summer...reading and talking with you...isn't this exciting!  :-)

But wait, there's more!  If you faithfully follow and participate in this blog (that means signing up as a follower and posting at least 2 comments a week--yes, I will be monitering this) then you will receive extra credit on your essays that you turn in on the first day of school!

So, check out the reading schedule to the right, and go get your books and let's start this Journey...oh, come on, you know I had to get that in here somewhere, right?
