Out of the Easy by Ruta Sepetys (O for Out)
May 1, 2015 to July 31, 2015
Since school is getting out, we must get ready for our finals. We are a little
more relaxed here since you can choose your grade before even starting
the test! (And all grades are equal regardless of description)
In
each class, the first book you read will earn an OWL, the second book
you read will earn a NEWT. You may only read up to 2 books for each
class.
π 1. Pick a class and choose the discussion you would
like to read; your book choice must be determined by the grade you wish
to achieve for the discussion.
Each grade has a letter associated
with it. This letter may be used in the author's first or last
initials, or the main character's initials. It may also be the first
letter of the title or series title (A, An, and The are disregarded, the
first main word of the title will be used to determine the letter).
Grades
Outstanding: O
Exceeds Expectations: E
Acceptable: A
Poor: P
Dreadful: D
Troll: T
π
2. For the second book in the same class, a new grade must be achieved.
If you read a book with A for your OWL, you must choose a different
letter for your NEWT. See Auror Rules for additional information
π 3. You may repeat the discussion topic for the second book read in the class.
π
4. You may use any combination of OWLs and NEWTS to achieve your level,
except for the bonus Auror level which has its own requirements.
π 5. A complete class is achieving both an OWL and a NEWT.
Points
Levels
Freshman: any 4 discussions or 2 completed classes - 3pts
Sophomore: any 8 discussions or 4 completed classes - 6pts

**Auror level:

using only the letters O or E. This means 10 books, specifically at
least 5 OWLs with O or E, then 5 NEWTs with O or E in the same classes -
Bonus 2 pts
Note: This is the only option that lets you
repeat a grade within the same class, you may use O and/or E for both
discussions in a class if you are claiming the Auror bonus points.
