Students will participate in Book Club by choosing groups of 3-5 students and a book at their reading level according to their interest, or the subject currently being studied. They will decide together how to split the book into three or more sections to finish in four weeks or less. They will prepare and write out a discussion role for each meeting (Word Wizard, Connector, Summarizer, Questioner, or Passage Person). This plan is written for either in class, blended, or remote learning.
