Tuesday
Welcome!
Welcome to the Home School Santa Barbara Book Club. We meet every Thursday at 10:00 to discuss what we are reading. Students self select books, read a minimum of 100 pages per week, and prepare a "letter" to be read to the group each week. It is the theme of each letter that unifies our discussions. The basic themes cover character development, setting, plot structures, and personal response. Each student brings his/her book to club and reads the letter of the week. Discussion follows. Students are encouraged to self-evaluate their work; they are also given evaluative feedback from the group facilitator. The big idea in the Book Club is to read a lot, share with others, and get ideas for new reading material. It is our hope that a lifelong enjoyment of reading is developed. It's a good thing!
