 * NO PAGE LEFT UNTURNED!.....That is the motto of grade 4 readers!**

This page is devoted to sharing impressions and responses related to your independent reading books. When assigned, you will write a friendly letter describing the book you are reading. Focus should be on literary elements, such as characterization, plot, conflict, setting, author's purpose, theme, main idea, genre, etc. Make sure you also give a short summary and your opinion of the book so far. You should have about 3 paragraphs. You should respond to another classmate's post in a thought provoking manner to encourage conversation around literature you are reading.

To do this, click on __middle box in the upper right hand corner(a number)__, sign in (only the //firs//t time) to join, and post a response. Make sure you list the title/author of the book and the number of pages you have read each week. Remember to use all of your writing skills to post a quality response. Make sure you have the greeting and closing of your letter as I've modeled it for you. If you think you might not finish the assignment or will need to edit it, type it in Pages first and when you are done, copy and paste it into the response area and post.

If this is your //first// time using the discussion board__...__ For students in our class, sign in using your school user name, your school password and email, then click __Join.__ Remember there is a list of user names and passwords on the Assignment page.

HAPPY READING and POSTING!
