Divergent Novel Study

October 4th, 2018

During the weeks of October 8th - November 23rd, we will be completing our first novel study on the book Divergent by Veronica Roth. Divergent is a dystopian fiction novel that we will be using for comprehension of fiction texts and help us better understand how point of view is used in a novel. Throughout the unit, we will be building our vocabulary to help us read unfamiliar words and identify strategies for learning their meaning (searching definitions, through context, etc.).

Students will have the option to read a paper copy of the book, or use an online pdf which they can read on their Chromebooks. Throughout the weekend I will be posting a copy of our schedule for our readings and activities under the language page (located under the subjects heading at the top of the page).
