Here is an electronic copy of the novel, Number the Stars, for you to read over Winter Break.
I suggest that you keep a Reading Log, electronic or in your notebook, so that you will remember the important things that happened in the novel. You will have a few assignments in January about this book. If you do not read it, you can't do the assignments.
Try to break the story into the different parts of the plot:
1. exposition
2. rising action
3. climax
4. falling action
5. resolution
Take note of the major and minor conflicts PLUS the possible themes of the novel.
I hope you enjoy the novel as much as my students last year enjoyed it!
