The Page Turners

A book club is about to begin!!!

Starting after Christmas break, I will begin a book club called "The Page Turners."

Each month, I will be hand-selecting a high level interest book for students to read.  We will meet every Friday at 8:00 A.M. in my classroom.  Not only will we have a book talk, but we will also enjoy donuts and juice each Friday.

In order to be part of this club, your child will have to purchase the book-of-the-month that I select.  These books will be available through Scholastic (the classroom book order forms) each month.  I will be sending home a flyer about this book club on Monday along with the Scholastic Book Club flyer, highlighting the book we will be reading in January.  Your child must purchase the book in order to attend the meetings.  

The purpose of the book club is to get more students excited about reading.  By me selecting a book I think everyone will like, and having your friends reading the same book, and discussing about it, should intrigue others to want to read.

The January book will be Wonder by R.J. Palacio.
