I am so excited to start this school year with your child!  We will be reading several novels over the course of the year and students will need to purchase or borrow them from the school/public library.   Novels can be downloaded to a Kindle or e-reader as well.  You do not need to purchase all of these books at once and you will be given at least a month lead time before we even begin reading the novel in class.  The novels we will be reading this year are :

So Far from the Bamboo Grove by Yoko Kawashima Watkins (school provided)

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens (usually available for $1 from Scholastic)

The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

As You Like It (No Fear Shakespeare version) by William Shakespeare

Holocaust book of choice

Historical fiction book of choice

If there are any problems acquiring these novels, please let me know.  I am looking forward to a great school year!
