Is there any extra credit assignment I can do to improve my grade?

There are three extra credit opportunities always available for literature class:

1.  Read at least 25 extra pages in your novel and write an extra, quality 
reading response journal entry.  Turn this in on your regular RRJ day.

2.  Take an extra AR Test.

3.  In some cases I will allow you to redo a literature assignment.  Please
see me after school, before school, or during computer to discuss this
possibility.

4.  Write a novel review for the "What is everyone else reading?" section of
this web page.
