**Prior to the first meeting please have your student read When Stars Are Scattered by Victoria Jamieson. When Stars Are Scattered is a graphic novel and quick read, making it perfect for those who sign up right before the start date.*** Join us for a fun conversation-based book club where we meet every other week to discuss our book. I will lead a round-table discussion for each book we read, and every student in the class will have an opportunity to share their opinion with their peers. I will be fostering a love for books, and 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 read a variety of highly acclaimed books across genres that have been chosen to foster deep thinking in the students and to get them excited and engaged with the writing which in turn will make them want to share their thoughts with others. The books we will be reading are: Meeting 1 - When Stars Are Scattered by Victoria Jamieson Meeting 2 - Scary Stories for Young Foxes by Christian McKay Heidicker Meeting 3 - Restart by Gordon Korman Meeting 4 - From the Desk of Zoe Washington by Janae Marks Meeting 5 - The Labors of Hercules Beal by Gary D. Schmidt Meeting 6 - Projekt 1065 by Alan Gratz Meeting 7 - A Wish in the Dark by Christina Soontornvat Meeting 8 - Dead City by James Ponti We need at least 5 students for this class to run. Please do not purchase the books for your student until we reach the minimum student enrollment. Thank you!
Metas de aprendizaje
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.

Hello! My name is Jill and I am passionate about education and have extensive experience teaching in the online community. I love overseeing book clubs for tweens and teens, sharing my love of literature and writng, and offering classes that encourage and inspire students to share their thoughts and opinions with their peers.
My goal is to expose students to a wide range of books that they may not pick up on their own. For teens, I have also developed book clubs that focus on one specific area and curate book lists that add depth to the course descriptions for when it is time to apply to colleges.
Outside of Outschool, I am an educational consultant and homeschool expert at Simplify Homeschool. I run a group for homeschooled parents on Facebook called College Confident Homeschoolers and specialize in developing year long plans for teens and parents based on goals and interests. Additionaly, I support families with the college application process.
As for my own background, I began breaking away from the educational norm and deciding my own path when I took the California High School Proficiency Exam at age 16 and enrolled in community college. From there I went on to the University of California, Santa Barbara and graduated with honors with a B.A. in film studies. I completed the credentialing program from National University.
I am well-versed in all things related to homeschooling and education. I specialize in the area of homeschooling gifted tweens and teens, twice-exceptional students, and students with disabilities, including both learning and physical disabilities. This interest stems from raising three amazing children who are living with disabilities.
I welcome and support all learners in my classes and enjoy supporting every student no matter where they are at in their educational journey.Reseñas
