How it works

Each book club (4 - 12 students) will read one book together over 4-6 weeks, meeting once a week to discuss, share ideas, question, predict and read a selection from a following chapter. 

 You can create your own group by signing up with friends or I will form a group with similar interests and grade levels  so everyone has an enjoyable shared experience.

A reading survey will help me get to know the readers, and I will then offer the group several book titles/descriptions to choose among. The above book covers are just suggestions, there are many more options based on group interest.

The book options will include Bluestem and Caudill Award books, Newbery Honor winners, current social justice themes, historical fiction, science fiction, mystery and inventive fun fantasy.  After the group selects their book, and purchases it or gets one from a library, we will meet and begin the reading together.  In the following meetings, in addition to discussion, we might play some literary trivia games or contests,  role play, bring in artifacts that relate to to the story, or even food, in order to enhance our experience.
