Completely revised and updated, this new edition brings fresh insights to the popular Book Club program. Based on the latest classroom research, it helps teachers engage all students with age-appropriate literature, and its unique approach to student-led book discussions is supported by a full range of literacy activities.
A clear overview of the Book Club program is supplemented by new chapters on comprehension, writing, assessment, and classroom management. Complete thematic teaching units for four novels include related readings, unit projects, and correlations to language arts and social studies standards. An additional multi-book unit demonstrates how to teach with several novels at once for more lively and engaging classroom discussions. Innovative blackline masters support writing, comprehension, and assessment.
