Why do we read?
"The Achilles heel of consciousness is that we forget. We forget what we stand for. We forget to maintain good relations with the people around us. The reason for story is to repair the damage that forgetting always does. The story comes along to say, so what about this? What about living like this?"~ Barry LopezIf you would like to receive email updates from Google Classroom regarding your child's progress on assignments, please fill out the form below. On Writing
