Week Three Date Title Time Started Time Stopped Feb 2 # of pages read Feb 3 Feb 4 Feb 5 Feb 6 Feb 7 Feb 8 You will read ​
The Lightning Thief​
for the next month to answer each week’s reading log’s questions. Yes, I know some of you have read this before; you will have the pleasure of reading again. ☺ Yes, I know some you read quickly, so you may supplement your ​
5 days of reading for at least 20 minutes outside of class time per day (​
SSR in elective will not count for this) with any other book you are currently reading. Yes, I also know once you start this book, you may not want to put it down, but please keep to my pacing schedule. I am writing ​
ALL ​
the questions for each week to match ​
The Lightning Thief​
chapters, pages assigned for the week. You will still be given a choice from a list of questions and will still be required to answer ​
four​
questions total about the book you are reading. I recommend you ​
answer one a day and not all four on the same day​
. You may answer the questions in any order. Yes, you can still earn extra credit for reading more days but ​
not​
by answering more questions. ​
ATTACH​
your notebook paper with the answers to the back of this log. You must STILL write at least ​
five​
complete, thoughtful sentences per answer. Restate​
the question as the ​
first sentence​
of your answer—this does ​
not mean recopy the question Read Chapters 12­17 and then answer the questions below. 1. What does Grover mean when he says, “This is a terrible time to be a satyr” (189)? 2. Compare Percy’s and Annabeth’s relationships with their mortal parents. Who has the better home life? 3. What do Percy’s thoughts prior to jumping in the river reveal about him? 4. Should Percy have told Luke everything about what has happened, including his dreams? 5.
