Description
Class Experience
Students need to be able to read each book, independently or with their family in order to keep up with our club. Books vary from 4th - 8th grade reading levels, so younger kids who join should be advanced readers.
I am an English teacher with 9 years of experience teaching grades 3-10.
The only homework is to read the assigned chapters. If a student joins late or falls behind, they can catch up by reading more. We read one book each month.
You must have access to each of the books on our reading list. I always recommend owning every book a student reads but if that is impossible, please check your local library!
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Students who read all six books will receive a Learning Librarian's Book Club Certificate of Completion.
35 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 2 - 4 hours per week outside of class.
Some themes in the following books may not be suitable for every child. Please reach out with further questions. Holes- Fistfights, drawn guns, attacks with shovels, and danger of poisoning. Kissing. Racial injustice. Bridge to Terabithia- Some strong language, including "bitch," "damn," and "hell." Death. The Tale of Desperaux- Mild violence. Matilda- Mental and physical abuse of children. Wonder- Hateful language, smoking, and kissing. The Giver- Mild suffering and pain.
