In this 3-day class, we will be discussing the eleventh book in the Notebook of Doom series. We will follow Alexander and his friends as they battle crazy monsters that are invading their town! Class will consist of instructor-directed discussion. Discussion topics will include the reader's favorite moments in the story, parts of the story they found scary, or who their favorite characters were and why. We will also be talking about different literary terms as we find them in the story. The class will conclude with a review of our feelings and opinions as we decide if we would recommend this book to a friend. We will create our own monsters to present on the final day of class! There's a special notebook page attached below for your creation! We will also talk about what we put on our book reports and the different types of elements that are listed on the list of literary elements such as theme and setting. Don't worry, all of the documents you need will be in the classroom. Psst! You don't have to read the previous books in order to enjoy this one, but please read the sections listed below before class.
