grrrness. we have it too.
 we have to read One Hundred Years of Solitude, which I have started, but it is highly uninteresting. we also have to read Hamlet, which I already read in the seventh grade and I don't mind that play, because it is really good. |

I have summer reading, the book I had to read is called The Bean Trees. I found it quite interesting throughout the whole story. I was addicted as soon as I read the first page because it was so fascinating and before I knew it...I finished the whole book.

Well, every summer, we are required to read books over the summer. But now when I'm going to 7th grade this school year, we have to read one book atleast from the list. I've already read that book, just gotta read it over again to make sure I get all the details. It will be sooo good if they have Harry Potter on those lists.

I was supposed to read The Five People you Meet in Heaven, but instead, I'm just going to read Digital Fortress, even though it's for 10th grade o_o;

No, but reading is easier than actually doing HOMEWORK. I have to do math and reading booklets 5 pages long for each day until tuesday or friday.

I dont have summer readings. If i did..i wouldnt do it. Summer vacation is suppose to be a vacation and to forget about school.
Oh wait, i do have to read. Im not going to to do it. Gosh. Every teacher told us to relax and enjoy summer, but they gave us books to read...wow...how could we relax when we have homework? |

QUOTE(emo_in_urpanties @ Jul 3 2005, 7:54 PM) Who else here has required summer readings for school?? Thats another reason y i hate AP English...gaah!   yea...I hate AP English too...we had to read the great gatsby, which in & of itself was a good book, but we also had to do: 1) a huge study guide (ch. 7 had 21 questions...and not just simple ones) 2) 300 some notecards (no correctional fluids allowed) 3) 90 some vocab words to locate in the book. and no, we couldn't just write the page number down, we had to write the whole freaking sentence too. I'm still not done. Darn Teacher. And to think I'll have to do all of this for another book next year.  Ah, thanks for the post, I feel so much better now that I've vented lol

I'm not given summer reading, man other countries school systems are strangee, or just other schools I guess
 But I read anyway, it's quite fun, you can get lost in a book for a whole day, before you knwo it it's dark outside and you can't see your book anymore
