A note from:

St. Rose School English Teachers:

There’s a series of educational workbooks called,

Summer Bridge Activities: Bridging Grades Kin-

dergarten to First, Bridging Grades First to Sec-

ond, Bridging Grades Second to Third, Bridging

Grades Third to Fourth, Bridging Grades Fourth

to Fifth, Bridging Grades Fifth to Sixth, Bridging

Grades Sixth to Seventh, and Bridging Grades Sev-

enth to Eighth. Your child’s comprehension of the

parts of speech; noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, ad-

verb, preposition, conjunction, and interjection, etc.

will benefit by this series. This particular series is

available on Amazon.com and at some local teacher

stores. Also, the internet has interactive grammar

websites that may be beneficial to keep the student’s

grammar, knowledge, and usage, sharp over the sum-

mer. Scrip is available for Amazon.

P.A.L. (Grades 5-8) Sports News:

Just a reminder… students who are participating in Fall sports must have an annual Medical Re-lease, signed by the child’s physician. The Medical Release must be in the school office prior to a student participating in August tryouts or practices. If you have any questions please contact our 2016-17 Sports Athletic Directors, Steve and Mary White at stroseschoolathleticdirec-tor@gmail.com. Thank you again to Steve and Mary White for all of their hard work through out the school year.

Summer Reading for 2016

8th Grade - Due the 1st day of school

Choose TWO from the list to read. At least one of your choices must be #1, #2, or #3:

1. The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank

2. Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass by Frederick Douglass

3. Night by Elie Wiesel

5. Across Five Aprils by Irene Hunt

6. Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson

7. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

8. The Call of the Wild by Jack London

Assignment #1: Create a list of interview questions you would ask the main character of the novel/

subject of the autobiography. Answer the questions (in first person) based on the personality of the

main character/subject. Questions and answers must be well-written sentences that illustrate an un-

derstanding of character. Please type your questions/answers using Times New Roman, 12 pt.

font. Place the title and author at the top of the page. You must include a MINIMUM of 10 ques-

tions/answers for each book. Grades will be based on how well the character/subject is represented

in the questions and answers.

*NOTES:

--If you read Little Women, choose one of the main characters

--The main character of The Call of the Wild is a dog, so you will need to be creative with your

questions and how you answer.

Assignment #2: Complete the assigned discussion questions and/or worksheets for each book.

Please type your responses on a separate document. Be sure that you are thorough in your re-

sponses and cite passages from the text as evidence for your answers. Your grade will be based on

your depth of understating and how comprehensive you are in your responses.
