Meet Clementine, a clever, quirky third grader and the most spectacular friend around. Join us as we discuss all her hilarious misfortunes! This book series is truly one of a kind, and this book club is perfect for emerging readers! This delightful chapter book series, by Sara Pennypacker, (author of the award-winning book Pax) is a modern classic that has been keeping readers engaged and laughing as they follow the hijinks of Clementine, a clever and quirky third grader who’s the most spectacular friend around. Perfect for fans of Amelia Bedelia! Clementine is NOT having a good week. On Monday she's sent to the principal's office for cutting off Margaret's hair. On Tuesday, Margaret's mother is mad at her. On Wednesday, she's sent to the principal, again. On Thursday, Margaret stops speaking to her. Then Friday starts with yucky eggs and only gets worse. And by Saturday, even her mother is mad at her. Okay, fine. Clementine is having a DISASTROUS week. But maybe can she find a way to make it better. In this exciting, adventurous book club we will meet once a week to discuss the Clementine books in order. There are 7 books in the series so far. Each book stands alone, so students can choose to join us for their favorite book, or stay for all of the fun! Books will be read ahead of time, before class. Class time will be divided between discussing the books and playing fun games! This class is designed to be fully interactive and students are expected to be fully engaged. We welcome shy students, and I will do my best to help them feel at home!
