Do you make New Year's resolutions? What is a resolution? A resolution is a promise. It is a promise that you make to yourself! It is a tradition for people to make resolutions at the beginning of a new year. DIRECTIONS Your writing will be divided in to three parts to answer the following three sections. 1. In the first section, list at least two resolutions for your personal improvement. 2. In the second section, list at least two resolutions that have to do with family and friends. 3. In the third section, list at least two resolutions about school and the outside world.

Students will complete a report on a book of their choice, and use the "Sandwich Builder" located at http://www.scholastic.com/kids/homework/sandwich.asp to complete the report.

Students will read a novel in a literature circle. For the culminating project, each student will create a book report sandwich. On the top slice of bread, each student will write the title and author of the book. On the lettuce, the student will write a brief summary of the book. The student will write about the main character on the tomato slice. On the mayonnaise, the student will describe the book's setting. The student will share the book's climax on the Swiss cheese. On the ham slice, the student will describe the plot, and on the bottom piece of bread, the student will draw a favorite scene from the story. These ingredients will be stapled together on the corner to appear like a sandwich.
