Because of Winn-Dixie: – We started our class novel (Because of Winn-Dixie). Every week, we will be covering a few chapters, and after every 5 chapters, we will be having a quiz to ensure that every student comprehends what they are reading. Please ask your child/children questions about what we have read in class, and encourage him/her/them (as I do) to bring home their books to review what was read in class. My only rule is asking them not to read ahead of what we have covered in class unless they have been asked to do so. At the end of this book, they will be required to complete a book report. Further information on this will be provided at a later date, when we are closer to completing it. Please let me know if you have any questions.

This week, we are doing the Quiz on Chapters 11 – 15. We will then continue reading chapters 16 – 18.
