Hey Avid Readers! Tell us what you read today in class...but tell us using one vocabulary word and one of the sentence patterns we have studied (either 6, 7, or 8). I did not read in class, but I did read some last night. I am reading a book called Dragonfly in Amber, which is the second book of a serious. Ask Megan about the first one...she is reading it right now. The second one involved the main character's daughter...but I don't want to spoil anything for Megan. Overall, it is a story about a time-traveller who goes to 18th Century Scotland. The inimical conditions into which she is sent is one of the conflicts of the novel. Since I like the topic of time travel and since I am interested in history, I love this series!
