JYJ Book Club
We have 4th and 5th Grade book clubs. During each month (or however long it takes us to read the book). We read books that allow us to experience plots, characters and situations that children their age face that we may have not been aware of. These topics can include: blended families, homelessness, poverty, overcoming obstacles and apartheid to name a few. Each group has 8-10 students from all reading levels. We meet once a week (Tuesday's for 4th Grade and Thursday's for 5th grade) during lunch and have a blast reading and discussing the books.
