Welcome to the new school year.

We have started our new school year and the Book Club is up and running.  We have 2 book clubs that meet every other Tuesday during their lunch recess.  This is has been a great start so far and I am super excited to spend time with these amazing students and book lovers.  Right away we had the opportunity to explore our school book fair and each group got to choose 2 brand new books to add to the Book Club selection collection.  Then we took on the challenge of reading a scary book.  This challenged some students and we discovered that scary books are not for everyone!!  What a great discussion about knowing when we don't like a book, are uncomfortable with a particular genre, and most of all - how important it is to try (because we never know when we will discover a whole new genre that we want to explore).  These students are so much fun to spend time with - I know this is going to be an amazing year.
