We have our books! The blogging plan:
The book we decided to read is called The Foxman by Gary Paulsen. It just came in the mail this weekend, so we can finally start to read it. Here's what's going to happen:
1. Each group must make one posting every week that summarizes the chapters we read for that day. (For example, on Tuesday, Group 1 will post for chapters 1-3, on Wednesday Group 2 will post for chapters 4-5, and on Thursday Group 3 will post for chapters 6-7).
Each post must include:
- A short summary of the chapters
- A reading question so that people can respond.
2. For the last 40 minutes of class on every Thursday, the class can go down to the computer room and write comments for each of the posts from the week. This can be done together in groups.

It's Book Decision Day!
Our A2 Adult English class is working on a project: we're going to read a short American novel and do the true American thing: BLOG ABOUT IT! The books we're debating between are: Scott O'Dell's The Black Pearl, Patricia McLaughlan's Sarah, Plain and Tall, Gary Paulsen's The Foxman, Antoine de Saint Exupery's The Little Prince and Jean Craighead George's Julie of the Wolves.
Feel free to give us advice or comment on any of our choices; we'd like to hear your opinions!
We'll let you know which one we decided to read and our progress along the way.
-A.F.
