This is the perfect course for students looking to add a strong reading list to their high school transcript.

Join us for an engaging book club where we meet once a month over the school year to discuss a different environmentally focused book. This book club is perfect for the homeschooled teen who is looking to add to their yearly book list. 

In this course, students will read and discuss a variety of books covering a variety of issues. The books are engaging and thought-provoking and should foster discussion for the student who is concerned about climate change, animals, and the environment. We will meet ten times for a lively and insightful discussion about the topics of the book and the books themselves. In addition, students will be required to answer questions for each book and share their thoughts with me and the class.
 
The books we will be discussing are:

Meeting 1 - The Race to Save the Lord God Bird by Phillip Hoose (https://amzn.to/3W5n3Li)

Meeting 2 - The Death and Life of the Great Lakes by Dan Egan (https://amzn.to/3MtgLSU)

Meeting 3 - Hurricane Lizards and Plastic Squid: The Fraught and Fascinating Biology of Climate Change by Thor Hanson (https://amzn.to/3W4SfdD)

Meeting 4 - The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben (https://amzn.to/3MqpOUo)

Meeting 5 - The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History by Elizabeth Kolbert (https://amzn.to/41z2wAc)

Meeting 6 - Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures by Merlin Sheldrake (https://amzn.to/3Wj1sPE)

Meeting 7 - Let My People Go Surfing by Yvon Chouinard (https://amzn.to/42ASeAQ)

Meeting 8 - A Most Remarkable Creature: The Hidden Life and Epic Journey of the World's Smartest Birds of Prey by Jonathan Meiburg   (https://amzn.to/3pyS5z3)

Meeting 9 - The Day the World Stops Shopping: How Ending Consumerism Saves the Environment and Ourselves by J.B. MacKinnon (https://amzn.to/3BmGrds)

Meeting 10 - Regeneration: Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation by Paul Hawken (https://amzn.to/3Mrh54v)

學士學位 由 University of California Santa Barbara
Hello! My name is Jill and I am passionate about education and have extensive experience teaching in the online community. I love overseeing book clubs for tweens and teens, sharing my love of literature and writng, and offering classes that encourage and inspire students to share their thoughts and opinions with their peers.  

My goal is to expose students to a wide range of books that they may not pick up on their own. For teens, I have also developed book clubs that focus on one specific area and curate book lists that add depth to the course descriptions for when it is time to apply to colleges. 

Outside of Outschool, I am an educational consultant and homeschool expert at Simplify Homeschool. I run a group for homeschooled parents on Facebook called College Confident Homeschoolers and specialize in developing year long plans for teens and parents based on goals and interests. Additionaly, I support families with the college application process.

As for my own background, I began breaking away from the educational norm and deciding my own path when I took the California High School Proficiency Exam at age 16 and enrolled in community college. From there I went on to the University of California, Santa Barbara and graduated with honors with a B.A. in film studies. I completed the credentialing program from National University.

I am well-versed in all things related to homeschooling  and education. I specialize in the area of homeschooling gifted tweens and teens, twice-exceptional students, and students with disabilities, including both learning and physical disabilities. This interest stems from raising three amazing children who are living with disabilities. 

I welcome and support all learners in my classes and enjoy supporting every student no matter where they are at in their educational journey.
