Summer Work 

6/1/23

Hello Future 7th graders!

Congratulations on a successful 6th grade year! I hope you have a summer of relaxation and fun! For this summer, I would like you to pick two of the following books from the list to read this summer  : 

-The Alchemist by Paul Coelho 

-In the Footsteps of Crazy Horse by Joseph Marshall. 

-Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick 

-Hope Was Here by Joan Bauer

-Point Blank by Anthony Horowitz

For each book you will do Journal entries. After you have done journal entries for both books you will do a picture tells a story project for one of the two books. 

-Please submit the journals in my Google Classroom by Aug 21st.

-The Picture tells a story project due the first day of school: August 29th, 2023.

I am looking forward to getting to know you all and having a wonderful year! 

Sincerely, 

Mr.Windle

Project 1: Journal/Diary Entries - Write 8-10 journal entries telling what has happened to

the main character in the novel. Each entry should be 5-6 sentences at least. The

days do not have to be in a row.

For example:

Monday, January 10th

  Today the most exciting thing happened to my family and me.

  Just as we sat down to eat dinner …

Saturday, January 15th

  No one is going to believe that earlier this week there was a

  knock at the door and …

Project 2 : The Pictures Tell a Story - Draw at least 8 pictures showing what has happened

in the novel. Along with each picture, write 2-3 sentences explaining the picture(this can be on the back of the picture or underneath the picture.)
