Of course, as a conscientious English Language Arts educator who will be teaching one new course in September (and the content that goes along with it), I have quite a bit of "required" reading to work through in anticipation of delivering good lessons. Beyond that, though, I want to make the effort to be "better read," whatever that means.
In the interest of working toward this personal improvement goal, I have already (just barely) begun one book (Frome), and have acquired the remaining titles, primarily from the school "book morgue," which need to be read. They're sitting right up in my
So, including books I have read before (some over a decade ago!) here is what is on my menu this Summer:
Ethan Frome by Edith WhartonThere are also a number of books not on our school Summer Reading List that I am hoping to both read and re-read, too, so I definitely have to get after it!
The Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller
Macbeth by William Shakespeare
The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne
The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros
What reading are you planning on doing this Summer?
Breathe in, breathe out… YOU AND I ARE ALIVE!
