Mrs. Peyton and I are thrilled to be doing another year of joint book clubs. Our Bibliotherapy book clubs focus on a social skill or life experience, target a group of kids who match that skill or experience, and read a book to help discuss it. We are bowled over every semester by how engaged these students get, how focused they are, how responsible they are with their reading, and how it bonds us together as a group.
We started two groups a couple weeks ago. We're reading Ghetto Cowboy by G. Neri with a group of 4th grade boys, and Like Pickle Juice on a Cookie with a group of 3rd graders. The students are already reading and responding in our meetings. We're building relationships together in our group and having a lot of fun. Check out Aiden reading this book- he has always been an outstanding reader.
