Junior Great Books Winter 2018
What is Junior Great Books (JGB)?
An awesome book club for kids in 2nd - 5th grades! It happens weekly in January, February & March during lunch/recess. A parent-volunteer leads a discussion about and fun activities related to the stories read in advance.
Kids: What's expected of participants?
1) Read the story (stories) twice before your meeting (parents can also read to kids)
2) Bring a bag lunch & drink
3) Have fun by joining in the book talks and games!
Parents: Consider becoming a leader!
Grade-level groups are led by parent volunteers. You'll have the chance to work directly with students and your enthusiasm will foster their love of literature and learning.
Cost is $30/per student. Families seeking scholarships should speak with Principal Chris Holden.
Registration is open until December 15th, 2017 with groups starting after winter break. Please contact Adrienne Berman at adie.berman@gmail.com with any questions.
