This quarter we will be reading and studying the novel "The Watson's Go to Birmingham- 1963." I suggest purchasing a copy of the novel to keep at home for students to study and review chapters read in class. Students must bring novel folders to class each day.
All textbooks (Writing & Grammar and Language of Literature) are due by Friday, May 30.
