Welcome!

Welcome to Mrs. Schuette's Reading Corner.  Over the summer, I will post reading lists, thoughts on my favorite books, books I'm currently reading, and questions to think about.  As the school year starts next year, it will be expanded to include reading assignments, class questions, and chances for you to post what you think.  I hope it inspires you to read new novels and reflect upon novels you've already read. 

As we wind down the current school year, I am reading Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt.  I am enjoying all the Shakespeare references, and the humorous situations the main character, Holling Hoodhood gets himself into.  I will post more information soon.

  1. Hi Mrs.Schuette! Its Mady Newman... I hope you are enjoying your summer so far! I really like your website! It has helped me find good books to read over the summer.. I had one quick question. I was on dropbox a few minutes ago and opened the reading challenge bingo document and was wondering if that was for incoming 7th graders only or if we could do it as well.. I am writing the first challenge you gave us and I am having a lot of fun with it! Thank you!

  2. Incoming 7th graders are required to read, and this is part of their grade. Anyone can participate, and I'm sure I can come up with prizes for 8th graders who want to play along :)
