I cannot believe that we are ten years into this millennium. So many changes but what remains steadfast is Gods love for us and our love for each other. May you bask in that love everyday and may it keep you strong when you get discouraged. Have a lovely and peaceful summer, creating memories with your family. “This is the message that you have heard from the beginning: We should love one another”

READ THREE BOOKS. Try to choose at least one book with a connection to Asia, Africa, or Latin America. For EACH book, complete the following four steps: 1. Text to Self: Find something in the story that reminds you of something you have experienced. Quote (give the page number!) from that part of the story and then write a detailed comparison between the story and yourself. 2. Text to Text: Explain how a part of the story reminds you of another book, movie, song, or other artwork. Quote (give the page number!) from that part of the story and write a detailed comparison between the story and the work it reminds you of. 3. Text to World: Quote (give the page number!) something from the story that you must research in order to understand it. For example, maybe the character is wearing a “garanimals” shirt so you must look it up to see what that brand looks like. Look up the thing you chose and write what you learned. Tell where you found the information.
Directions: Students will read at least 3 books from list or other books in grade level reading and write two book reports.
4. Create an artwork (a collage and/or drawing) which expresses visually all three “TEXT to…” parts 1, 2, and 3.
