  2. Daily SSR Entry: Each entry contains: -Date -Book title & author -Starting page # (SP) -Ending page # (EP)-Total # of pages read -Reader’s Statement (RS): What’s happening in the book? Summarize. What do you predict will happen next? What questions do you have for the author? What character traits do you appreciate? Find frustrating? What is your opinion of the book so far? Other comments? Sample Entry: 9/17/12 The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins SP: 1 EP: 20 Total: 20 RS: Katniss lives in District 12 of the former U.S., now Panemwith her sister, Prim and her Mom. She is an agile hunter and gatherer and has had to do so since her father’s tragic death in a mine explosion. The reaping is today and the tone of District 12 is very somber as children ages 12-18 could be drawn to defend themselves to their death in the Hunger Games. I predict that Katniss or one of her close friends or family members names will be drawn. This book is really suspenseful, I’m loving it so far!
