6th-8th Grade Novels



Parents: For the 2016-17 school year, we will be reading several novels in 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade Language Arts classes; some will be the same as in the past while others will be new. The school owns class sets of some of the novels, but you will need to purchase the others for your student(s). Purchasing your own copy allows for note taking and marking the text which you cannot do with the school owned copies. You have two options:You may purchase them on your own this summer.You may give the school the money at the beginning of the school year, and we can order them for you. Order forms will be available at registration on August 6; order forms and money will be due by Friday, September 4.**Please be aware that the listed prices may change by the beginning of the 2016-17 school year. I have several places where I can purchase the books at a discounted price. On the back is a list of the novels with prices I have found at several companies. If you find any of them even cheaper this summer, please feel free to purchase them on your own. If you want to purchase them for your child’s e-reader (Kindle, Nook, iPad, etc.), e-readers will be allowed in my classroom.I encourage the students to read these novels over the summer so that they will have a better understanding when we read them in class; I just ask that they don’t “spoil” the novel for those who do not read them in advance.
