I don't remember if I read it in middle school, I do remember reading a portion of it... But I'm not sure when I read that portion. All of my middle school life, one teacher for English and social studies (as in teacher A taught me English and SS in 6th grade, teacher B taught me Eng and SS in 7th grade, and teacher C taught me Eng and SS in 8th grade). I was also in the advance classes.

6th grade is a blur
7th grade is kinda a blur
8th grade... I only remember 2 books atm. To Kill a Mockingbird and Chocolate something.

Chocolate War?

And you guys read To Kill a Mockingbird in the 8th grade? ._.

I can't remember which books I read as assignments and which I read on my own. I went thought about 50 books a year back in my school days. Well, until high school. Then various extra curricular activites took priority.

I read To Kill a Mockingbird this coming school year(Freshman) o: && Lord of the Flies and...I think Romeo and Juliet.

Anyone read Tomorrow When the War Began by John Marsden?

He's an aussie author.. read the 1st book in yr 9 i think.. then i fell in love with his books and bought and read the entire series (of 7 books)

I read To Kill a Mockingbird in the 6th grade and after I finished it, I realized I was too young for it. And then I read Portrait of Dorian Gray in 7th grade and realized I was too young for it...

I keep telling myself to read it again sometime... har har. Just add it to the pile... ~_~

Hrm.

9th grade we did: Animal Farm, The Odyssey, Romeo and Juliette (I think)
10th grade: Lord of the Flies and Julius Caesar (except I missed that.. o-o)
11th grade: The Crucible, The Great Gatsby, Of Mice and Men
12th grade: The Awakening, Siddartha, Oedipus Rex, Heart of Darkness, Metamorphosis, Portrait of Dorian Gray... I feel like we read more in 12th grade... o-o.

I dun remember. Dx

Anyway. We were supposed to read all those books but... The Awakening I had read the summer before and Portrait of Dorian Gray I had read in 7th grade (forgot it completely) and I just spark-noted Heart of Darkness because it was end of the year and I had major senioritis and I couldn't bother with it anyway.

Ah, yes.

Yes. But I didn't read To Kill a Mockingbird. She split the class into 4 groups and each group got a book. xD

summer before 9th Grade was... All Quiet on the Western Front, Flowers for Algernon, and... one more about a boy, his brother in a war... something...

9th Grade was... Romeo & Juliet, The Merchant of Venice, Of Mice and Men, and... Not sure what else.

10th Grade was Les Miserables, Fahrenheit 451, Night, one about a Japanese girl who's mother suicides, her father marries his mistress, and stuff; and some others I can't remember. Some in my class read The Count of Monte Cristo.

11th Grade was The Great Gatsby, The Scarlet Letter, The Crucible, some plays by Arther Miller, and some other things. I also read Catch-22 and The Catcher in the Rye for our summer assignments.

12 Grade was Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildestern Are Dead, Crime and Punishment, and.... I don't remember the titles of the rest. @_@

We only read part of that in 8th grade o:

I see a few other ones I will be reading in the same grade you did o:

I could of read that as a project, since I heard it's a pretty good book...

About a guy who wants to get smart... sounds interesting, and it's my english teacher's favorite book...

Anyone read The Outsiders?

My personal favorite years are 10th grade and 11th grade. I didn't like the work we had to do, but enjoyable books. <3 I enjoyed some from other years too, but I enjoyed the ones I read in 10th grade and 11th the most.

Nope, don't think I have Kirby.

Yeah, its a good book.

&& I read The Outsiders in 7th grade. I liked it :D I thought it was gooood.

I liked the Outsiders. It gets an "Eh, whatever" rating from me.

I loved my 11th grade books too because I liked my English teacher. ^_^ I didn't like my 12th grade teacher so much... >.> Played favorites all the time...

Haha, I like my 11th grade teacher too. Nice guy, good taste in movies too imo.

Math >>>>>>>>> English.

Maybe I just don't like it because of my depressed, always crying, obsessed with hand sanitizer freak-of-a-teacher.

Never again... -shudders-

We got her to cry in class about 4 times, too! :3

Ew. Math.

Algebra is :love:. Hahaha.

There was like only 1 difficult part of Geo. Proofs ftl.

You must work better with the math and science part of your brain. I work better with English/social studies and artsy stuff :x

Just call me Rain Man. :sunnies: (Copyright infringement intended.)

If you're so tired, go to bed, little girl!
