BOOK LIST BY ERA:

In order to receive your EXTRA Test Grade - you must first get approval for any book not on this list to insure it fulfills the historical criteria necessary (because there are TONS I have missed), then read the book completely, and submit a 2+ page summary of the book AND link it to the topics we have, or are currently, studying in class.   It is done by nine weeks/era, so make sure you choose a book for the eras we are currently studying THAT nine weeks.   It MUST be turned in through Turn-It -In.   If you plagiarize, you will NOT receive extra credit, and the information will be shared with the administration and sponsors/directors/coaches of your various extracurricular groups.   See the submission link in this module  to submit your report.   This means you CANNOT copy and paste from websites, book jackets, etc., nor Google Share each other's work.   It is an extra test grade - worth a significant amount on your nine weeks average - it's not meant to be a blow off.  Happy Reading!  

The book link may send you to Amazon, so you can see the book description; however, it is not intended for you to purchase these books - unless you want to.  Over the years, our library has accumulated most of these titles - either in book form or Overdrive.  World History is a volatile, not always PC, course; therefore,  there are a few the library opted out of purchasing.  If you are looking for a specific title, or question the suitability of a title, ask myself or the librarian, and we can  assist you with one that you will be comfortable with.  If you are currently reading one you feel might fit in in an era, come convince me to accept it.
