Several of you last class period did not create a blog post for your independent reading list for this nine weeks. Do so, and post the link to the assignment page (You can find it in the right navigation or atop the English 11 calendar page.).

=Scavenger Hunt= Grab a copy of Arkansas Next and the scavenger hunt, and complete questions 3, 4, 5, 7, 11, and 17.
 * Post your responses in the discussion tab of THIS PAGE.
 * Be sure to answer each question.
 * Make sure you're logged in as YOU!

=Independent Reading= Explore books you'd like to read this nine weeks. Then, write a blog post naming at least three (3) titles you'd like to read. For each, explain what attracts you to the title. You probably won't finish this in class today. You may want to do more exploring at home and talk to friends and parents to find good books you really want to read. I'll give you time in class Friday to finish your post.
