Summer+Reading+Information

You have been asked to read one book of your choice from the following Scholastic Books series in order to prepare you for history class:

Dear America My America My Name is America

Here is the letter with the information you were given; most of the information is also on this wiki:

Here is the Scholastic web site address to help you out: http://www.scholastic.com/dearamerica/books/checklists.htm

You may choose any book which strikes your fancy from one of the three lists, BUT it must be a book within the years __//**1700-1900.**//__ Choosing a book outside this time period will not count.

You will be expected to complete two projects **at home** for this book. I will be giving you a choice of projects for one of them. The other will be a simple summary of the book; try to keep it to one page. I recommend that you take notes while reading the book. You may buy a book or borrow it from a public library, but you will need to have it __//**at school**//__ during the first week of school. **//We will be completing a third project at school!//**

**WARNING:** I WILL NOT TAKE LONG-TERM PROJECTS FROM YOU IF THEY ARE LATE! In other words, you will receive a zero in my grade book.

Go to the "Summer Reading Projects" page of this wiki to find the specific information for the projects you are to do at home for your summer reading.
