[LIT] Science and Literature: Literacy objective

[Robert]

I've started the year with grayson; read-aloud. Working with notetaking, plot 
summary, the Five Big Questions 
(http://www.ttms.org/say_about_a_book/say_about_a_book.htm), and I Am poems.

Looking at taking the notes and preliminary 5Q responses and doing a class 
level wiki, tying in some NF research. 

She does some incredible things with stopping and stretching out time, 
sequencing, great imagery, and setting and keeping the tension and mystery.
