Be sure to use the posted resources--especially the summary (to double check your understanding of plot) and the examples of both close reading practice and analysis paragraphs. As you identify your own strengths in your work, the examples will help you with the gaps in your understanding so you can achieve higher proficiency in these standards.

Remember: the reading schedule is somewhat fluid, but you must complete each section before the deadlines (Part 1 is done before class Mon., 2-10, Part 2 is done before class Thurs/Fri., 2-13/2-14, the book is finished before class Mon., Feb. 24). Reading 60 to 80 pages in one sitting is not the optimal way to read Bradbury's work, so be sure to read shorter passages over the week.
