Please double check with your child to ensure that they have gotten OR still have the book, The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. I have returned many lost library books to the DC Public Library, and I have found many purchased books lying around the school and in my Lost and Found with no way to identify the owner of the book. I have allowed students to borrow more than 40 books from my personal class set, with a contingency that they return the book at the end of our study or replace my book if they lose it. Even students who borrowed books from me have misplaced the books I have loaned them! As we are coming to the end of our study of The Outsiders, it is imperative that students have the book in order to complete the character analysis/essay planned next week. I know, I know 7th grade is difficult and our children have the most difficult time keeping up with everything going on, but I want to make sure they have the best possible opportunity to succeed in English.
Have a next weekend, and have fun at the local library or bookstore!
