Club de lectura de literatura fantástica de El Señor de los Anillos: La Comunidad del Anillo de J. R. R. Tolkien

This Book club is discussion based, focusing on JRR Tolkien's book "The Fellowship of the Ring." Learners will need to have their own copy of the book or audiobook. Learners are encouraged to contribute to class through group discussions, asking questions, participating in kahoot review games, and giving short reflections on the readings. All Tolkien fans age 11 and older are welcome to join this book club! 

It is important that learners read (or at least skim and be aware of key events) from applicable chapters before each class. The instructor will guide learners through the readings, leading discussion on events within the chapter and how they relate to theme, character development, world-building, the history of Middle Earth, and plot.
