0"Junie B Joes: Boo I Mean It!" by Barbara Park is required for this class.  Students may use e-books, hardcopy and paperbacks, or audiobooks to read and comprehend the text.

Handouts will be uploaded in into the Outschool classroom before some sessions.

Paper, markers or colored pencils, and pens or pencils are great to have on hand for class activities.

Students are invited to wear their Halloween costume to the last class session as well as bringing a Halloween treat to eat during our activity time if they wish.

Junie B is a very irreverant character. She may appear disrespectful to the adults in her life, although it is not from a place of rebellion. She is also learning to use correct grammar so she sometimes speaks incorrectly.

Students will need their own copy of "Junie B Joes: Boo I Mean It!" by Barbara Park.  Students are welcome to read the book in hard copy or on e-book or audio book.  Text to Speech accompanied by reading can be a good strategy for dyslexic learners  as enlarging the print in e-book format.
