Class Experience

In this 5-week class we will read (outside of class) the first 5 books that appear in the Babysitters Club Graphic Novel Series, then we'll discuss what we read and prepare delicious bakes inspired by the books. 

Each week we will meet to: 
-discuss the assigned book we've read outside of class.
-bake a treat inspired by the character featured in that book.
-support each other through the process of successfully working through the recipe, while leaving room for some kitchen creativity.
-read aloud favorite excerpts/quotes from the book.
-share our thoughts on the characters and how they develop and change over the course of the series.

Please read the assigned book each day before we meet for class.
