Book Clubs in the Classroom

During small reading groups, Mrs.Whitworth's students have been enjoying reading through "book clubs".  Why book clubs?  

Book clubs...

  • Promote a love for literature and a positive attitude towards reading;
  • Reflect a student-centered model of literacy;
  • Invite natural discussions that lead to student inquiry and critical
    thinking;
  • Support diverse responses to text;
  • Foster interaction, cooperation, and collaboration;
  • Provide choice and encourage responsibility;
  • Expose students to literature from multiple perspectives; and
  • Nurture reflection and self-evaluation.
