Sacred Reading Time: You will read your independent novel and track the number of pages you have read. If you have finished a novel, you need to write in a Big Idea Book. Today, I will continue having reading conferences with you.

Today, you will finish writing your letter to the editor. To assist you, have all of your materials and tools out on your table:

  • model letter to the editor
  • transition word sheet
  • criteria checklist
  • editing checklist
  • research notes

When you finish your letter and have submitted it to me, you will work on your ALIEN character. 

Imagine that an alien teenager is sent to earth to visit you!

What would this character look like? Sound like? Be interested in? 

You will be creating the character in one of the following tools next week:

Doppel Me

My Blue Robot
