The following project will be due on Wed. May 7th. It was assigned to the students on Wed. April 9th, so they have four weeks to read their novel and complete the project. This will take the place of reading journals for homework this month. Students are aware of how they are graded and the rubric is attached to their project outline as well as on this site. Thanks!
