So much for using the newspaper assignment for two AP classes. Looks like you are just reviewing the articles for me. If you are having trouble finding articles that interest you, try the Education section of the New York Times. I enjoy reading about what's going on in high schools and colleges around the world - maybe you will as well.
Hopefully everyone has chosen their summer reading. Remember if you don't like your books, come get some more. Don't read a book you don't enjoy - there's plenty of time for that during the school year! I'm about half way through Passage to India. I'm fascinated with what Forster is saying, but sometimes I'm frustrated with the way he says it. But for me, this book is better than To the Lighthouse - I could not get into that one at all. The most popular choice seems to be A Farewell to Arms. There are plenty of extra copies if you want to pick one up.
I think I should have pushed more of you to try Invisible Man. It is unlike any book I have ever read. Email me if you'd like to get a copy out of my bodega. I am here until July 1. I won't be back in the country until August 9 - so last minute questions will not be answered promptly. Start now and ask questions now - that's my best advice.
I have a fascinating year planned and I am very excited to get started. Happy reading and writing! Mrs. D.
