Book Club!

Kia ora everyone! I have been participating in a short activity called Book Club. You may have heard of it before. Book Club is related to reading, well, it is reading! There are many roles to pick from. Each person from the group, after you read a couple chapters from the book, you will have to share your template for your roles. The Discussion Director will plan out some questions to ask each person when they have their next meeting.


My roles that I played was Illustrator- drawing a picture from a paragraph that you choose- and Discussion Director- directing the meeting and asking questions about the topic/book.

The book that my group read was.....


By Jillian Sullivan.
I recommend that you read it!

Book Club Reflection!



My Book Club novel is: The Sign Of The Warrior



Backward-Looking:
How much did you know about Book Club before we started?
I thought it was just a club where adults usually go to and talk about the book that they’ve read. I also thought that they just discuss what book they are going to read, or what page/chapter they’re going to read up to.



Inward-Looking:
What were your goals for Reading and Book Club? Have your goals changed? Are you on track to meet your goals?
One goal of mine was to “Make a conclusion or an assumption.” I did not understand what it ment and didn’t know if I could achieve it. Untill, a workshop came along called “T Workshop: Make a conclusion or an assumption.” Just what I needed!



Outward-Looking:
If you were the teacher, what comments would you make about your learning so far?
I would think about, how much work I have been doing related to my goal and if I was working hard. I would also see if I was really trying to achieve my goal and if I really want to achieve at a high standard.



Forward-Looking:
As you look at your work so far, what's one thing that you would like to try to improve upon?
I wish I could read more at home so I can catch up with my group and so I will see what the story is about in a nick of time!
