Blog #12 Due: Monday 12/6/10

Hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday break.

For this weeks blog I want you to describe the overall Tone of the book you are currently reading. What motive do you think the author had in mind when he wrote your book? Was he wanting it to have a creepy tone, a happy tone, sad tone, and so on. Describe the Tone of your book by giving an example. Do not forget to tell us the Title, Author, and current Page number of your book. Your response must be at least 5 sentences long.  Do not forget to comment twice!

Blog #11 Due: Monday 11/22/10

This week we are focusing on Text Structure. Think about the book you are currently reading, what kind of text structure does the author use the most. Your book might use more than one text structure. Be sure to give an example from your book that supports the text structure you think is present. If you need help refer to your notes on page 33/34 of your notebook. Remember to include the title, author, and page you are currently on. Also, do not forget to comment twice!
