Harry Potter Book Club: Character of the Week Debate
What's included
1 live meeting
30 mins in-class hours per weekHomework
1 hour per week. The homework challenges offered in this club are meant to serve as an additional discussion question that students will have the opportunity to brainstorm between club sessions. This allows them to show up to next week's club meeting ready to give their answer to our very first question of the day. Students can brainstorm their answers or write them down between club sessions. With that being said, the homework is optional and only meant to offer an extra bit of fun and creativity if their time allows.Class Experience
