WINTER BREAK EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY!

And here you have ANOTHER extra credit opportunity!  For up to 25 extra credit points, write a review of the Lit Circle book that you read for Round 1.  Your review can take whatever format you like:  written, a video review, a script, a poster, etc.  The number of extra credit points that you earn will be determined by the quality of your review.  Remember: this is a review.  That means you can state your opinion on whether you enjoyed the book or not.  That being said, don't be jerky about it.

In order to receive ANY extra credit, your review must be turned in by TUESDAY, January 5th.  If your review is just that fantastic, I'll show it to the next two classes when they do that Lit Circle.

HAVE FUN!  HAVE A SAFE, HAPPY, AND WONDERFUL BREAK!

    1. There isn't a specific length it has to be. The amount of extra credit is more based on the quality of the review.

    1. Not for the extra credit, because we'd have a hard time seeing how you felt about the book from a diorama!

  10. For the final project where it says explanation of alternative consequences would it mean like for example : the person in the book that we read got in trouble and just got yelled at could the explanation of the alternative consequence be like instead of the character getting yelled at by his parents he could have gotten grounded because that is what most parents do when their children do something wrong or get in trouble.🤔🤔🤔

    1. The explanation of your alternative consequence includes the consequences of the different choice that you made. So, for example, if you think that the bad choice in the novel was that his parents didn't ground him, then your alternative choice would be for his parents to ground him, and then you would have to explain the consequences of that.
