In Mrs.Jackson's English class, we did a novel project. We had to read a book and do four activities over it. This was a memorable experience because I was able to read and enjoy interacting with my novel. In class we also did grammar bell works. We read stories and had to comprehend to answer the questions she would ask. She always made us think before we were able to answer. Along with reading, Mrs. Jackson also used the other strands of literacy.
