Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
In this Book Club , we will meet once a week for 6 weeks to discuss 6 books that will be a mix of Newberry honor and medal books. These are examples of children's literature that are excellent and sure to become favorites. The goal of the class is to help learners analyze a novel and to express their thoughts and opinions. Topics that will be explored are characters, theme,genre, conflict and resolution, setting, point of view and author's purpose. The class is designed for voracious readers and those who want to challenge themselves to read more.
The class will be structured as follows:
Week 1: We will read and discuss  Caddie Woodlawn by Carol Reilly Brink
Week 2: Read and discuss Lily's Crossing by Patricia Reilly Giff
Week 3: From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Bail E. Frankweiler by E. L. Koingsburg
Week 4: Read and Discuss Ginger Pye by Eleanor Estes 
Week 5: Read and discuss Chitty Chitty Bang Bang:The Magical Car by Ian Fleming
Week 6: The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare

Learning Goals

Students will improve their independent reading skill. They will practice public speaking as they share in class. They will learn literary terms and expand their reading response skills.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi, my name is Miss Angie! I am a teacher of 20+ years. I follow a Charlotte- Mason/Waldorf inspired teaching philosophy and love teaching poetry, literature and handcrafts such as cross stich, embroidery, sewing and crochet. I am also passionate about tea and poetry tea times for a variety of age groups. I love allowing young minds to explore their creativity and believe in hands on/student led education.I believe in music and art as foundations for learning. 
 
I have a BA in Speech and Drama with a minor in English and have taught music and theatre in addition to Language Arts , history and elementary school.

I'm also a mom of two fantastic daughters. The other love of my life is an adorable little Pomklee named Hunter.

I am very excited to share an exciting learning journey with you and your kids!
