I love taking part in discussions and ensuring that the students' needs and interests are met as they read. I like to work with students to help me design and schedule the class! I have run this novel study as a part of my student-choice-driven Classic Literature Novel Study course. If you have any questions, please let me know!
Students will be asked to complete the reading outside of class and to complete any writing activity that we start in class if we are unable to finish it. Please let me know if you have any questions!
Students will be asked to purchase the novel. I will provide several options for accessing the novel. I also ask that students have access to Google Drive (Documents) so that we can work on the journal and so that I can provide as much feedback as possible).
1 hour 20 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
Please check the parental guidance provided by Commonsense Media which addresses information within the novel about alcohol, violence, and more! https://www.commonsensemedia.org/book-reviews/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-the-galaxy-book-1
