| A great activity for
advanced readers is called CyberGuides. If you want to see all the
CyberGuides that are available go to their website, CyberGuides. Scroll
down the list below and see if the book your class is reading is there. If you find
the title of the book then you are all set to do some challenging activities based on that
book. If your class is not reading
a book at this time ask your teacher if you can chose a book from the list, read the book
and do the activities instead of your classroom reading work.
Look for the title of the book your class is reading or you
would like to read. Notice that there are several activities for each book. Click on
Activity #1 and carefully read the instructions, then complete that task.
Open a Word document to record your answers or write the answer on paper or a worksheet
your teacher gives you. Continue to Activity #2. Do all the activities assigned by
your teacher. When you have completed the assignment don't forget to turn it
in!! Be prepared to get a grade for your different activity.
