Getting Started

I hope that everyone is having a great start to summer! Now it's time to get things started. In the next two weeks, you should make a plan to watch the movie The Kite Runner. Currently, it's on the Netflix Instant Queue, which means that if you have a Netflix account, you can view it online. I would also suggest checking the public library. Invite your friends over for some popcorn and make it a social event! Secondly, you also should be trying to acquire a copy of the book A Thousand Splendid Suns. We will start reading Part 1 of the book on July 9th. Enjoy the sunshine! Happy viewing (of the movie)!

Welcome to the Summer Reading Blog!

Before the first day of school, each 12th grade student is required to first view the movie The Kite Runner and then read the novel A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Housseini.

Our goal of this blog is to create a space for discussion to help improve your comprehension of the assigned movie and book.  If you choose to participate, you will start senior year feeling more prepared and confident.
I like this equation:

a strong start to senior year = higher grades = you + happy

So, who wants to join the discussion? :O)
