Mrs. Kristin’s book clubs are more like college classes than adult book clubs. She teaches kids how to think critically about what they read; even the youngest book clubbers are introduced to the concepts of themes, symbols, figurative language, and voice, all in age-appropriate language. We debate opinions and find textual evidence to support our ideas. We also read some really great books.
Five-Star Favorites is the upper-middle grade/YA book club full of Mrs. Kristin’s favorite reads from the oft-overlooked middle school years.
Book list:
Planet Earth is Blue by Nicole Panteleakos
Science Fair by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson
Mexikid by Pedro Martin (local author!)
Open to rising 7th–9th graders.
Dates: June 9, July 7, July 28; 4:30–5:30 p.m.
Students are responsible for acquiring their own books. Books are not included in the cost of class.
