6th Grade Language Arts: New Book Clubs

This week 6th graders started their new book club groups.  This quarter the theme is “Coming of Age” books.  The books being read this quarter include Counting By 7s, The Outsiders, The Schwa Was Here, and Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life.  Students received their books last week and met with their group members to develop the reading schedule and set goals and ground rules for the meetings.  Each book club group will meet for eight discussion sessions throughout the month of November.  During each meeting, students discuss reading log reflections, literary elements, opinions, frustrations, interesting quotes, predictions, etc.  The concluding assessment projects will be completed in December.  Students will create a book review individually and work as a group to develop a talk show presentation as the characters from their book.
