My students have been so excited to read the books. \r\nCurrently, we are reading the books in groups, in form of book clubs. This allows for all students to be able to read the most books as possible. It also helps deepen the conversation when the groups are small, 10-12 students per group. These small groups have also created a special relationship among the students since they are sharing a common experience. \r\nMy students have connected to the stories. This has motivated them to keep reading and wanting to read the next book. I have seen a great change in my students attitute towards reaading and sharing their experiences.
