									Good Morning Students.  Please sign in to homeroom.  I hope you are enjoying "The Ickabog."  Some students have asked me if they can read ahead.  Absolutely!  Ideally, I would like you to keep up with the daily chapter posts but I don't want to require too many chapters at a time so that you are able to also keep up with your Independent Reading and other school work  but if you are enjoying it, by all means, keep on reading.  More reading is never a bad thing!  I would like you to read and summarize chapters 6-10 due Thursday 6/4 @ 9:00 AM.  I also added audio versions of the chapters.  On Thursday, I would like to have a Zoom meeting to discuss what we've read so far.  I will post the link to the Zoom Thursday morning.  I will also hold Zoom office hours tomorrow from 10-12 to answer any questions you may have or to just check in and say hi.  As always, you can also email any questions you may have.  Keep up with your Independent Reading as well, your third reading response is due Friday 6/12.  I will post this week's Reading Log in a separate post.<br>

									Hi students!  I'm very excited to introduce to you, JK Rowling's new book.  It's called "The Ickabog" and will be posted, a chapter or two daily, Monday through Friday, from Tuesday, 5/26 through July 10th.  I'd like you to begin reading from chapter one and try to catch up to her daily posts by next Tuesday, 6/2, at the very least, read up to chapter five.  The website is posted below along with a template for you to write short chapter summaries as you read. Next week, I'll be posting assessment questions and hosting Zoom discussions.  It looks like a great book and should prove to be a fun read!  Below is an article about it from BBC News and you can also read more about it on the website. <br><br>"JK Rowling has surprised fans with the announcement of a brand new children's book, which she is publishing in daily installments on her website for free.<br>The Ickabog is her first children's story not to be linked to Harry Potter. She wrote it over a decade ago for her own children and has now dusted it off.<br>It's for "children on lockdown, or even those back at school during these strange, unsettling times", she said.<br>She had previously referred to it only as an unnamed "political fairytale".<br>Chapters of The Ickabog are being published daily until 10 July on The Ickabog website.<br>The first two chapters, which went online on Tuesday, introduced King Fred the Fearless, ruler of Cornucopia, and five-year-old Bert Beamish.<br>Readers also learned about the myth of a fearsome monster called The Ickabog, which is "said to eat children and sheep".<br>Most of Cornucopia was a "magically rich land" with happy people and fine, abundant food, readers are told.<br>But in the northern tip lived the Marshlanders, who scraped by on meager resources. They had "rough voices, which the other Cornucopians imitated", and were the butt of jokes about "their manners and their simplicity"."<br><br>“JK Rowling Unveils The Ickabog, Her First Non-Harry Potter Children's Book.” BBC News, BBC, 26 May 2020, www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-52809600.<br>
