Othello-themed YA Novel Literature Circle Reads

As a student in Ms. Cerra's, Ms. Krueger's, and Mrs. Henry's sophomore English classes at Capuchino High School you will be participating in a cross-class discussion of your chosen lit. circle book. (Ms. Rutigliano's students may also be joining us for some of the book discussions.)

During the last six weeks of the semester:
  • you will be expected to make at least 10 posts to the blog of your YA novel. (Five of these will be comments to other posts where your responses demonstrate thinking about theme, characterization and imagery in your YA novel. The remaining 5 posts need to be under- the-surface questions you pose to others about theme, imagery and characterization.)
  • you must post on at least 10 separate days.
  • you may earn bonus points after the required 10 posts if the additional postings demonstrate insightful thinking.

Below you will find indvidual postings for each of the Othello-themed YA novels being read.
