Here you can find the handouts and resources, and due dates you need to complete the genre projects.

Each month the library will feature a new genre. Our class will complete a monthly book project to go along with that particular genre. Students choose their own books for the projects with guidance from me.           You will need Adobe Acrobat to open the project files.
