Reading..and Careers

You are reading and responding to literature really, really well. Please find a quiet, comfortable place at home to read each night - we will start with 20 minutes and build stamina (how long you can do something) each week. Log your reading (time you read, pages you read) and a reaction in your reader's sourcebook.

In your writer's sourcebook, continue your inquiry into future careers. Research the career you chose yesterday by Googling a keyword (for example, "teacher") or asking someone you know who is in that career. Once you have gathered some information, take notes in your writer's sourcebook. You will come up with a list of questions you still have about the career tomorrow, share your ideas with your classmates, and do more research this weekend. You will start your career project on Monday.

More details about my former life as a journalist tomorrow.
