What are book clubs and how do we pick a book to discuss?
1. Book clubs are reading groups that discuss a book that the group has picked out and enjoys reading.
2. This unit is Realistic Fiction. It's nice to read about young people your own age who have similar problems to yourselves. It's enjoyable to find out how they solved their problems and whether or not you agree with their solutions.
3. There is a reading record in google docs where you can give each person in your group a job and track your reading progress and make comments. It's a current reading journal worked on by the group, so your mark depends on the entire group.
4. This will give you an opportunity to voice your opinion daily with the help of the other students in your group. It's a lesson in cooperation as well as reading and writing. Good Luck and Have Fun!

What a great way to introduce the unit. I am going to link to your post when we kick off the book groups downstairs. I hope we can bring 165 and 164 together soon.
