Reading for Pleasure

Each week students will come together in a relaxed and quiet atmosphere to read independently for pleasure. Students will select books and prepare a contract outlining individual reading goals. This course is devoted to “silent, sustained reading,” and any behavior that distracts from the reading of other students will not be tolerated. Cell phone use and other electronic devices other than a teacher approved one such as a Kindle used for reading is not acceptable. You will not be allowed to complete homework of any kind in this class and sleeping is not an option.
