Welcome to Mrs. Picozzi's 11th Grade English class!

Reflection: This year, we'll focus on great literature: reading it AND writing it! Reflect on the books you've read at home and in school, and post on one of the following topics:

* A book that had a tremendous impact on me, either positive or negative;

* My favorite all time memory of reading at home;

* The most difficult book I've ever read and how I overcame its challenges.

Be sure to post before 8 p.m. on Tuesday, September 1!
