Independent Reading Mondays!

So, most of us dread Mondays. We're tired. We're cranky. We're sad that the weekend is over. It's hard getting back into the swing of things. But, rest assured. You now have a reason to LOVE Mondays! Why? Because we have Independent Reading time! Yes, folks. It's time to find yourself a great book and a cozy nook and dig in.

There are a few parameters. Your choice should be:
1. A book you haven't read before.
2. A book that has a storyline.
2. A book that is appropriate for your reading level.
3. A book that is in some way connected to American Studies (this could mean that your book is written by an American writer, or it takes place in America).

Simple, right? Take a look around your house this weekend and see if anything catches your eye. If so, bring it with you on Monday. If not, fear not. We'll make a trip to the library during class on Monday and I'll be able to help you.
