We have started our first novel, No Talking by Andrew Clements. We will read the majority of the book together in school, but reading may also be assigned for homework. Feel free to read ahead if you like, but remember that you need to be on the same page as the rest of the class while we are reading together. There will be a comprehension check every 2 chapters. They are not announced, but every time we finish an even-numbered chapter, you should expect one.
