Abby turned in her "Where I'm From" poem. She did outstanding work. She also completed the pre/post test on Literary terms so that I will know the ones that she understood and the ones we need to discuss. We then discussed her independent novel THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHTTIME. Abby really likes the book. I gave her a quote from Sherlock Holmes to use as she continues reading. She should look for textual evidence as she is reading to support the quote so that she will be ready to write an analytical essay regarding the book.
