Estudios novedosos de novelas clásicas

In this multi-day course, students will read a variety of books and begin a novel study for each book. The teacher will assign chapters for the students to read individually and then discuss as a class during the weekly meeting. Weekly, students will be completing questions pertaining to the chapters and discussing the chapters read. 

Other than class discussion and read-aloud of a particular text, the following formats of activities will be used: google docs and other google software will be used for students to jot dot their notes or answers to particular questions. 

Learners should at least be willing to learn and engage for an hour per week, as well as read at least two-four chapters (chapters are short) outside of class on occasion. 

Prerequisite Skills: late 3rd-grade through the 5th-grade reading level is preferred with some flexibility
