1. Your summer reading writing assignment. This is the letter you are writing to the author of your summer reading book. I passed out and went over the directions with you in class on Wednesday. Remember: these should be typed unless you have a written note from home. The directions say double-space, but you can single-space the letter if you would like.
2. A reading book. This is just a pleasure-reading book; it does not have anything to do with your summer reading! You will all be reading for the 20 minutes after lunch, so it would be best to find something you enjoy.
