Title: Reader Response Lens
Course: Speak: Elements of Fiction and Critical Lenses (8th-10th)

Reader Response asks us to consider our own experiences when we read. How do our lives color the text?

Throughout the course of the novel, respond to at least 5 Reader Response Journal Prompts (below) and upload on the main page.

Here's a video of Laurie Halse Anderson reading a poem she wrote that is a compilation of reader letters--essentially, their Reader Responses. This might give you an idea of how other people have viewed this text.

SPOILER ALERT! Don't look at the video until after you've finished the book!
