Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 6
Hatchet Book Club will guide students through the novel. Students will read some parts independently and some with the class. During our class time, we will meet together to discuss each section, answer comprehension questions, review any sections that were difficult to understand, complete an activity or art project related to our reading, and review reading skills. This class is recommended for 4th grade and up. 

This is a great course to have your child take if they need to review reading skills, learn to love reading, and/or a book to read over the Summer. This Book Club will enrich student's comprehension of the text and in addition, your child will enjoy the book!
*Students will need a copy of Hatchet by Gary Paulsen (printed or e-book)

Teacher expertise and credentials
Nebraska Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Welcome! My name is Emily and I am a 5th grade teacher in the state of Nebraska! I LOVE to teach and work with students. It is so much fun to help learners become masters at the skills that they are learning. In my spare time, I love to spend time with my husband and dog, go on hikes, cook, and read! My favorite book is the Wizard of Oz by Frank L. Baum.
