I hope you enjoyed your summer and have been working on your "Summer Reading Tic-Tac-Toe Project." I will be collecting your completed projects on Tuesday, September 10th. Today begins a new school year and a fresh start for each of you. Let's begin strong! 
"Summer Reading Tic-Tac-Toe Project" Directions:
  1. Choose a book from the "Middle School Summer Reading List."
  2. Read the book. 
  3. Read the options outlined on the tic-tac-toe board. 
  4. Choose 3 options you feel confident you can complete. These 3 options must be in a row (top to bottom, left to right, or diagonally) just like when you win tic-tac-toe. 
  5. Complete all 3 selected options based on the book you chose and read.
  6. Bring completed project to school on Tuesday, September 10th, 2013 and turn it in to Ms. Pauker.
