Hunter and I read in the Prentice Hall Literature text "A Glow in the Dark from Woodsong" by Gary Paulsen and the poem "Mushrooms" by Sylvia Plath. We read pre-reading material and compared and contrasted, looking for tone and vocabulary in context. Afterwards, Hunter answered Review and Assessment questions. He continued and finished writing his alternate ending for "The Book Thief" in response to a prompt and did a great job!
