PART I: MAKING CONNECTIONS Books often have a lasting impact on our lives, whether it’s a character that’s made us laugh, an incident that’s outraged us, or a storyline crafted with such sadness that our heart breaks at the ending. Oftentimes, connections can be made between books and our own lives. This activity will help you identify connections between the outside world and the book you selected for your summer reading experience. Possible Connections: 1. How the book relates to your life 2. How the book relates to things that happen in school 3. How the book relates to current events 4. How the book relates to other books you’ve read in school or on your own 5. How the book relates to pop culture (songs, movies, television, fashion, etc.) Directions: Think of three connections you can make to your summer reading selection. List the connections below, and explain each connection you have chosen by linking it to a specific character or event in the book you selected. Connection

Keep in mind, some conflicts are resolved with a desired outcome while others have an undesired outcome. It may also be possible that the conflict remains unresolved for a particular reason. Who or what is involved in the conflict? (List all parties involved in the conflict)

What is the conflict about?

What is the resolution?

(Summarize the details of the conflict)

(Write a detailed explanation about the outcome. Use a separate sheet of paper if necessary.)

PART III: CONCLUDING THOUGHTS Directions: Choose one of the conflicts you listed above and place yourself in the character’s position. Consider your actions if you were involved in the conflict: Would the conflict have occurred? Would the outcome remain the same? How would the story line change if you were the character involved? On a separate sheet of paper, write a welldeveloped paragraph of 5-7 sentences addressing the concluding thoughts. Be sure to use a topic sentence and a concluding sentence for your paragraph response....
