Description
Class Experience
Join us for a fun and informal book club where we meet every other week to discuss a historical fiction book. Teaching in a conversational manner, I will be fostering a love for books. Students in the class will be asked to think about what they read, form an opinion on what they read, and then share that opinion with others. We will also have fun rating and reviewing each book and comparing them to past reads. Students with a wide array of previous book club experience are welcome. They...
Book clubs in middle school are a great way to teach students to form and share opinions with others which is an important skill to have as they get older. I run all book clubs, so every student is able to answer questions that I pose and participate in the lively discussion. I also know that some students prefer to participate through chat than on a microphone. This is completely acceptable. My goal for the students is to get them to share their thoughts however they feel comfortable doing that.
Students need to come to class having read the book so they can participate in a lively discussion.

Historical fiction books deal with big issues including war, mistreatment of children, and other social issues. These books tackle all of these issues and more. There is war, racism, torture, abuse, terrorism, the AIDS epidemic, and more. Please pre-read if you have concerns.
Books need to be purchased or borrowed from a library.
