Book Report

Throughout the next 20 days, we’ll be working on a unique

favourite sections of our Bloom Balls.
Here is the timeline

library
~ divide the
total # of pages by 10 = pages to read each day
for 10 days, including weekends.
Thursday, June 6 ~ Book is read by now and Mr. Bartraw
introduces the rest of the project.
Wednesday, June 12 ~ 6 circles completed in TOTAL.
Tuesday, June 18 ~ DUE DATE! ALL 12 circles should be
finished and you are prepared to present your 4 favourite circles.
