First we’ll talk about Jane Austen and the time she lived in. I’ll have a powerpoint presentation we’ll go through. After that I’ll start reading one of Jane Austen’s letters to her sister, Cassandra, and then students are invited to join a discussion of the letter. We’ll also talk about any words that might be new to the students.

I love reading out loud and have done it for over 3 years. I love having discussions with students after we finish reading. Jane Austen is one of my favorite authors; I love how she uses words and puts sentences together. Reviews
