Summer Reading Project

We're getting down to the end of the year; only 21 more days of school!! (*insert happy dance here*)

With the end of the school year and the start of high school come some added responsibilities.  We've been going over the "blue book" that details the summer reading project required of Jordan Matthews HS freshmen this year.  I must say there are some changes to the book that we all are grateful for:
  • You can request a title of your choice.  Just be sure to fill out the form on the back (in proper English!), sign it, get your parent to sign it, then give it to me and if I am okay with it Mrs. Fowler and I will sign it.
  • A list of authors you can choose from.  How wonderful to know you are no longer limited to pre-selected titles!  
  • Q&A section (Remember to add my email address: lindsaygarvey@chatham.k12.nc.us to the contact info. just in case.)
I know you guys can handle this.  We have been working on so many things this year that encourage higher-level thinking and deeper thinking.  You will have no problem creating awesome projects.

Remember to take your time, put forth your best effort, and above all, pace yourself.  No one wants to read an entire book and complete this project the week before going to JM.
