Yr 7 - Long term holiday and extension homework

The book challenge begins.

As a class, we will undertake the challenge of reading 100 books between now and July 2013!

100 I hear you cry!  Let's think about it and do some sums.

There are 31 students in our class.
There are 3 terms in the academic year

If each student reads 1 book per term, the sum would be: 31 x 3 = 93.

If  I read 1 book per term, the sum would now be: 32 x 3 = 96.

If we asked Mr Marshall to join in, the sum would now be: 33 x 3 = 99

Only 1 book left over and we will reach our 100!  Easy!

Some authors you might like to consider are:

David Almond
Ian Serraillier
Michell Magorain
Helena Pielichaty
Philppa Pearce
Sally Gardner
Michael Morpurgo
Francesca Simon
Sharon Creech...

Please visit Mrs Charles and Mrs Daniels in the LRC as they will be able to support you in making suitable choices.
