New Novel in Class-Tuck Everlasting

We are continuing to read our latest classroom novel, Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt.  Each student received a copy to use both at school and at home.  While some of the readings are done in class, students are expected to complete the assigned readings during study hall or at home, as well as be prepared for discussions in class.

Some of the questions that students will begin to think about include:

*How it would feel to live forever?
*Is telling someone an important secret always the right choice?
*What are the advantages and disadvantages that come with change?
*Are there exceptions to breaking the law?
