In this project, I have requested a variety of chapter book sets so that I can have multiple copies for students to read during our book clubs. Students will be meeting in groups with their own copy of the same book so that they read individually and discuss their thoughts on the story as it develops. Book clubs have worked successfully in my classroom in the past, and I see a huge benefit in seeing students learn how to discuss with each other about books and being able to share ideas or disagreeing thoughts in appropriate and polite ways. My students will be challenged greatly from books clubs, especially as they grow as readers and thinkers. They will also be competing in a reading bowl and a diverse menu of digital competitions based on the books. In March, they will be able to attend the TOME Conference and meet some of the authors and receive awards.
