Description:
Welcome to the Year-Long Book Club! This book club will meet once a month from August to May. We will read one book a month, which we will discuss during our meetings.
My main goal is to have students dig deeper into analyzing each book we read and feel confident sharing their thoughts with their peers. Topics that we will cover include:
Theme
Foreshadowing
Characters
Genre
Conflict
Setting
Narrator
Writer’s Intent
