Did you set a goal to read more books this summer? Do you have summer reading to complete? Let me help you reach that goal! In this one week summer camp, we will read a whole book together! We will meet once a day for an hour to read Wonder by R.J. Palacio as a group. We will discuss the story as we read aloud! You will also read outside of class independently. Don't be scared by the number of chapters we will read per day - many of them are less than a page long!
