Yay...Reading Workshop Begins Tomorrow! (10.27.11)

At long last, we'll experience our first Reading Workshop on Thursday, October 27th from 1:15-3:15. Please bring the following materials to class:

• WOD Journal
(We'll always begin RW with WOD!)

• Your "Reading Workshop Journal"
(one of the several you were asked to buy and bring in your summer supply list.)

• Your computer
(We'll officially sign in to "GoodReads" at the beginning of RW.)

• The book you're in the process of reading...if that fits.
(If you're not reading something at the moment, that's FINE...we'll find something interesting for you to dive into.)

Can't wait to see you there!

Sally
