=======================================

Dear Parents,

After we finish the current unit in reading, we will spend the last  weeks of the year working on a novel.  We will be reading Hoot by Carl Hiaasen.  Each student will need a copy of the book.  I explained to the students that they can check it out from any library or if you prefer you can purchase a copy.  If you choose to check it out of the library, they will need to renew it so they have it for the duration of our study. If you choose to purchase it, It should be in the range of $7.00 or so.  They will need to have the book by Tuesday, May 4th.. 

During our study the students will have vocabulary, complete character studies, talk about themes of the book, complete activities relating to story structure, figurative language, comprehension,  complete journal responses to plot events, etc.,  as well as have quizzes and a final test on comprehension of the book..  

Thank you in advance for your help with this. We are very excited! The kids always love to step away from the textbook and enjoy learning through literature! When we finish the book we will watch the movie and compare the two, which of course they love as well. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to email me at any time.  

Thanks again,

Mrs. Smith
