Advanced Small Group Reading Club: Classic Fiction

This advanced reading group is for students who are confident readers at about a 4th grade reading level and beyond. Learners will read in small groups to practice fluency skills. This is a cooperative reading group with no more than 5 students to ensure each learner gets a good amount of reading time. During each meeting learners will take turns reading out loud. If time allows, we will also discuss comprehension questions. Students are not required to have their own copy of each book since they will be able to read the text directly from the screen. Please be sure learners are attending on a device large enough to read text shared in zoom meeting on the screen. 

Each week, learners will read a new book in the ten-book series. After the 10th week, we will start again at the beginning of the book list:
Week of January 16: "The Jungle Book" from stories by Rudyard Kipling
Week of January 23: "Romeo and Juliet" from the play by William Shakespeare
Week of January 30: "Frankenstein" from the story by Mary Shelley
Week of February 6: "Great Expectations" from the story by Charles Dickens
