8A & 8E- Reading journal 1 was assigned today. The prompt is as follows: Making Connections: text to self, text to text, text to world.  Does this book remind you of another book that you have read in the past? Does it remind you of something you have experienced in real life? If so tell me about it.  Journals must be at least a ½ page single spaced.  They must be in proper sentence and paragraph form and clearly show your thinking. 

Each student was given a rubric that outlines how RJ's will be marked. Attached at the bottem of this page is a teacher sample.
