Class Experience
Ron Roy's A to Z mystery books are quick, funny, and best of they all they are real detective stories. With a level N reading level from Scholastic, and plentiful illustrations these are fantastic for readers beginning to show interest in well developed chapter books. Generally ages 6-10.

Students will further their reading comprehension and inference skills as they develop a connection with books and reading. We will also work on our social skills as we practice active listening, and learn to respond to peers with meaningful, open ended questions.
Each week a section of reading will be assigned. Students will be asked to prepare their own discussion questions, and gather interesting vocabulary words between meetings.
