First Book Review Due Tuesday, Peer Review Monday

All students are encouraged to come to class on Monday with their book reviews finished in order to take advantage of class time that will be provided for self and peer editing. The final draft of your first book review is due Tuesday, September 18.

As you are working over the weekend, ensure you are:

  • consulting the documents provided to you to help you succeed, all found in the documents section of the Humanities 8 page
    • notes on book review format
    • rubric that includes strategies 
    • graphic organizer
    • exemplar
  • digging deeply, not just being superficial
    • Ask yourself: "Is my critique paragraph ONLY about my reading experience, or do I discuss deeper literary issues?"
