Today we begin All the Pretty Horses. I love this novel! I am confident that many of you will, as well; but, I want you to reserve judgement for at least fifty pages. Can you do that? Try hard. Read pages 1-30 for Monday.
And this next announcement is mostly for parents and guardians: I am attending the National Council of Teachers of English Conference in Philadelphia this year. This will be an opportunity for growth and reflection that will benefit me and my students this year and beyond. The timing, however, is unfortunate: I'll miss teacher conferences on the evening of November 19th. I will be available for conferences during the scheduled sessions on November 23rd and 24th. If you cannot attend at those times and would still like to have a conference with me, please let me know. I will schedule meetings and phone calls during the afternoons of November 16th, 17th, and 18th to accommodate as many families as possible.
