Hi, my favorite reading students! I hope you are enjoying your summer. I appreciate those of you who are willing to share your comments on here! Good for you! That helps others to see what good books are out there and what they might not like, either. If you have a question as to whether or not the book you chose may be one you will read in class, feel free to ask.
Sixth graders, next year you will read the following:
The City of Ember
Hatchet
Wringer
Sounder
Where the Red Fern Grows
These are for sure, and I can't remember the new ones I ordered. Seventh and Eighth graders, I don't have my order form here at home to let you know what you are reading. But I don't think you will choose ones you will be.
Just a reminder about the extra credit....You DON'T have to do the journaling for the extra credit...just the form! Please, if you can help it, don't wait until the first week of school to turn in the extra credit. I would appreciate the time to look it over and give you your points before school starts. You can-email it to me, put it in my box at school, or mail it to my house.
See you in August!

hey mrs.hurst how are? i just got done with book speak. it was about this girl who was in her freshmen year of high school and she had no friends because she called the cops at a party. i recomend this book. i loved it!!! the next book ia am going to read is the five people you meet in heaven.
Emma
Hey, Emma. I heard the Five People You Meet in Heaven is good. I'd like to read it. I hope you like it. I am glad you liked Speak. I think it has some mature subject material, but I can see why you would like it. I think it's a Lifetime movie, too. Have a good summer!
a mrs. hurst, is it okay if i read a book about relationships? my sister said that five people you meet is really good.
Emma
yeah, that's fine. As long as it isn't too hard to meet the journaling requirements. How's Jake doing?
I'm going to Fairbanks when we start school again, but even though it's late in summer, I know some good books. They're Eragon, Eldest, and Dragon Rider.
They all have to do with dragons, my sister told me to read Dragon rider, and I never finished it because of my cat incident. And everyone that I know that has read Eragon and Eldest said it was awsome. Eldest is the sequal to Eragon.
ok the book is called he is just not that into you. he is good. he is reading a graphic novel. i think he likes it.
Emma
Shelby, if you are really going to Faibanks, that makes me sad! I was so looking forward to having you in my class!
Love,

hey mrs. Hurst how is your summer going? I am reading the secret garden and its about this girl who is rich and was rly ugly so her mom didnt love her.the girl only cares about herself and no one else. bc she is not loved and she cannot show love to other ppl. she beats her servants and calls them bad names.she thinks that blacks are not ppl.i am not done with the whole book yet but its good so far. -christine-
Hi, Christine. I love that book, and the movie is great, too. I think we are talking about the same one. I am glad you are having a good summer.

Emma
Emma, I'm so glad you are taking this so seriously. I am very proud of you. I hope you are learning something and enjoying your books, not just doing it because I asked you to.
i really enjoy reading now. i think i jsut have to find books that i am interested in. when you first gave us the assignment i thought it would be so hard, but now i dont think it is bad at all.
Emma
Emma, thanks for being honest about your first reaction to the assignment. I think a lot of you are realizing that there are great books out there, if you take the time to look for them. Great job!
i know that this might me a stupid question but i lost my paper for what we have to do for the journaling. someone also said that there was some kind of website other than this that you could get all the requirements. I just wondered what that site was. or if you could like jst tell them to me or watever...lyl mrs. hurst:)
Whoever lost their sheet, everything you need to know is on this site, under the post of "Summer Reading Requirments". I can always email you one if you need me to.
mrs. hurst, i need one of those sheets for what we have to do for the journaling can you e-mail me one please. my e-mail is e_huber93@yahoo.com
emma
hey mrs. hurst i have read love's enduring promise and i guess its a series, and i was wondering what we were suppost to do about the charactor we most admire...are we suppost to pick different characters for each book or what. bc they are all still the same ppl i read in the last book of the series.
Hi guys!!!!! whats up? you guys should read a series of unfortunate events.....the first 3 books are a little sad, because like 5 people die, but it is worth the time!!!!!
