I love Percy Jackson.  I mean I LOVE Percy Jackson.  I want to read the books WITH YOU!  Whether you have read them before or are reading them for the first time, we will have a blast reading together. 

At the beginning of class every week, each reader will receive an assignment.  They will read for one or more characters in the chapter.  Each week we will read one chapter aloud together "Readers Theater" style.  That means that I will read the narration and the spoken dialogue will be read by the students.  Then everyone will read the next part of the book independently between classes.  Each student will be expected to read approximately one chapter per day.  

Schedule
Meeting One- Read chapter 1 aloud.

Week Three Independent Reading- Chapters 15-19

Every student will be expected to participate in each class.  It is my preference that cameras be turned on if possible.  Having the camera on allows me to see if an unresponsive student just missed their turn or if the student is away from the computer.  Student preference will be taken into account when speaking roles are assigned.  Students may not get their first choice.  They should be prepared to accept the role they are assigned.  I promise we will have a lot of fun.
