ELA: Lectura: Misiones de Merlín n.° 1 a n.° 24 Club de lectura de Magic Tree House ESL, EFL Bienvenido

Merlin Missions are more challenging adventures for lovers of the original Magic Tree House books!
Time-travel through history with Jack and Annie while practicing your language arts skills with new friends!
In this exciting book club, we will meet once a week to discuss the Merlin Missions book of the week. 
Each of these books stands alone, so students can join for one class or stay for as many as they would like! 
For this section, we will discuss books #1-#24 in the historical fantasy fiction series.

All of the reading should be done outside of class before the discussion. However, we will do a small amount of guided reading in class to practice skills and improve comprehension. For the rest of class time, we will discuss the book, share our favorite parts, work on vocabulary and comprehension skills, and play a Kahoot! game related to the book.

*** Please feel free to message me if you do not see a date/time that works for your schedule. I am usually able to add sections to accommodate different time zones. ***
