US Grade 3 - 6
Calling all bookworms! Our group is the place for anyone who loves books and reading to meet friends from around the world. Learners will use our group as a collaborative meeting spot for discussions about all things books! There will always be something new and fun to discuss! Come join the Elementary Book Club group while we build a community with friends from around the world!

As the moderator, I will:
• Create monthly discussions posts for learners to engage with
• Manage the posts to ensure we have a safe and respectful community
• Encourage sharing of book inspiration 
• Share interesting books that are appropriate for the elementary age group
• Upload book cover pictures for learners to see and discuss
• Share my favorite poems, books, and songs about books and reading
• Share videos of myself reading stories
• Share links to group-relevant video clips about books and reading

Learners are encouraged to: 
• Make new friends
• Share books they are currently reading
• Share drawings and artwork of books and stories they are reading 
• Stay connected with friends throughout the week
• Share their favorite book titles and summaries
• Meet up to discuss their favorite things about the books they are reading
• Share their favorite book characters and discuss why they like them so much
• Upload screenshots and videos of their favorite book characters 


▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬  NOTES  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
This group is a social club that will have a collaborative discussion each week. There won’t be weekly live meetings or the opportunity for live/direct conversations. Instead, our community will form through exchanges made in a discussion-like forum on our classroom page. I will moderate the group to ensure that helpful and relevant book/reading based content is posted. I will create monthly discussions and learners are encouraged to participate as often as they'd like.

Guidelines
Welcome to our Group! We want all of our learners to feel comfortable, connected, and safe. That's why we have 3 rules we ask you to follow: Be Kind, Be Safe, and Be Respectful. Be Kind - Help all learners feel welcome and included. Learners from all over the world, with different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities, religions and body types, participate in our Group. Always be nice and make others, especially new learners, know that they belong and are welcome. Teasing, name calling, or bullying anybody in our community? Nope. Not happening here. Be Safe - Keep your personal information private and never ask other learners for theirs. Personal things are personal. We want to keep you safe on Outschool, but we also want YOU to understand how to be safe when you're meeting other learners or teachers. Keep your full name, home address, gaming or social media name, email, and school name private. Be Respectful - Treat others how you want to be treated. Keep language clean and information you share safe. If you wouldn't say it or share with your grandma, don't do it here. Swear words, racy videos, and violent images are not allowed. Treat Outschool like a public place, and when in doubt, keep things covered.
