This week is a chance for us to get to know one another, as well as to discuss the policies, procedures, and expectations of the class. Each quarter we will do an Independent Reading Project. This quarterly project will require students to read a book throughout the quarter. The final product for the project will be a short essay identifying and analyzing the book's theme. We'll wrap up the week with a trip to the library and a discussion of the IRP.
