Book Clubs
Ask your child about their new book clubs. We are reading the following books and focusing on critical thinking questions and rich discussion around our books. They are all Historical Fiction books with a theme of bravery, courage, and survival except The Conch Bearer which is a fantasy book and lends itself to being a great book to use for comparison because it focuses on the same themes of bravery, courage, and survival. All of the assignments can be found in Schoology.
