Boston Public Library Saint Clement Junior Senior High School Summer Reading Lists 2003 |
|
||
|
All students are to choose three of the following books assigned to their grade. It is strongly recommended that students purchase the books so that they can highlight important points and make notes in the margins. Summer reading is an important component of the curriculum. Guidelines for required complementary assignments are on the reverse of this list. Please check www.saintclementhigh.org for a brief description of each book. Grade 9 The Hiding Place, Corrie Ten Boom Grade 10 The Blues Eye, Toni Morrison Grade 11 The Color of Water, James McBride Grade 12 Angela’s Ashes, Frank McCourt Assignment: Read three books, making notes of difficult vocabulary words and important characters in each book. The following assignments are due the first full week of school: 1. For each book,
compile a vocabulary list of 20 unfamiliar or
difficult words and their definitions. The list must contain the
sentence and page number from the book where the word appears. Testing: Students will be tested on summer reading during the first full week of classes. The tests will consist of critical essays or book reviews. Students will need to be familiar with the plot, characters, and theme of each book and will be allowed to use marked up copies of the books during the exam. Extra Credit: Create a “Treasure Chest” for each book. This will be a container filled with articles representing the plot, characters, and theme of the story. Some articles a reader might include would be photos, posters, puzzles, games, maps, or anything which will help picture what happened in the book. |
