Common Reads
You will need to be able to annotate the texts. Library copies are acceptable, but plan on using post-its to mark the text. The calendar each nine weeks will have reminders about which books you should have. Your teacher will give you plenty of warning when you will need to purchase a book.
Sophisticated reading requires mature accessing of the text. This means you must annotate your books; therefore, you will need to purchase these books well ahead of the time we will begin them, or you must find a way to annotate using post-its or other non-permanent marking material on library books. You will be expected to have these books in class as scheduled. Electronic copies are welcomed. Don’t forget to check out the school library’s book exchange shelf for free used copies of school reads.
If for any reason you cannot purchase a copy of a novel, please come see your teacher well in advance.
