But, what do sixth graders think? And, what do their parents and grandparents think? Although I usually hate homework on the weekend, students have a special assignment for this weekend.<br /><br />They must answer the following questions: <br /><br />Why do you believe reading is important? <br />How do you think reading skills will help you throughout your life?<br /><br />In addition, they must interview either a parent or grandparent and ask them these questions to find out their opinions about reading.<br /><br />It will be interesting to hear opinions. I wonder if there will be much difference between students and their parents/grandparents?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6684639278116003661-4765806985653289012?l=www.thereadingworkshop.com'/></div>Mr. McGuirehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02922744477241266679noreply@blogger.com13
