Come tour the world through great books! Join me and other classmates from all over the planet as we read exciting stories about great adventures and the people who experienced them.

-Weekly live book discussion
-An engaging presentation all about the author
-Intriguing background information highlighting locations, characters, and historical context
-Appropriate video tie-ins
-In-class dramatic readings
-Vocabulary review
-Weekly creative projects such as step-by-step drawing, songwriting, and creating inventions
-Optional hands-on activities such as activity pages, posters, and other fun projects

𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒂 is a fast-paced book that is not only full of adventure, it’s funny, interesting, and helps readers gain empathy for others. 

Written by Roald Dahl in 1988, precocious and gifted Matilda is a girl who has to learn to overcome parents who don't care to educate her, a tyrannical headmistress, and a boarding school that makes prison look fun. She also comes to terms with her own surprising telekinesis and triumphs over much adversity. 

You can choose to read or listen to an audio version of the book. We’ll split each book into 4 sections and read one section per week. For 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒂, our schedule will look like this:

Session/Week One: In-class intro (you do not have to read anything before our first session)
Session/Week Two: Come to class having read Chapters 1-7
Session/Week Three: Come to class having read Chapters 8-14
Session/Week Four: Come to class having read Chapters 15-21
