Sam and I revised her working vignette. We talked about the rhythm of the lines and where to end one and begin another. Sam enjoyed the writing assignment and took direction well. She knew exactly how to revise for effect. We then talked about THE ABSOLUTE TRUE DIARY OF A PART-TIME INDIAN. We discussed the three chapters that she read on her own. We decided together that she could read up to and including chapter 10. She likes the study guide questions because they provide a focus for her reading. I do not collect the study guide questions; they are to help Sam with understanding the novel. We ended the day by reviewing punctuation rules for co-ordinate conjunctions.
