Our Units of Study:
In 8th grade, students will be following the curriculum designed by Lucy Calkins for our reading and writing units. They will be arranged as follows:
You will be reading forty books this year. This includes books that you read for LA class and books that are read aloud in any class.
You will be reading from a variety of genres in order to explore books you might not ordinarily read and to develop an understanding of literary elements, text features, and text structures.
Books must be at least 80 pages.
Any book you read that is more than 300 pages long will count as TWO books.
