READING SCHEDULE
***As teacher, I reserve the right to assign only selected chapters to the students; the students will be given specific reading assignments and instructions every week of the month for each monthly book, so each respective book should be obtained by the first day of every month. There will be an objective reading quiz and an objective/subjective writing assignment every week a reading assignment is given.
Any edition of these books will suffice, except for the William Shakespeare selections (so buy used and inexpensive!). Specific ISBN numbers for those Shakespeare works have been listed.
Honors class students will be given the opportunity to read more books than what is on this list. Details will be given on the first day of school.
