Designed to encourage a love of reading while providing a structured and memorable reading experience, Reading Club Beginner introduces students in early elementary school to two beloved children's novels with uplifting themes: Ruth Stiles Gannett's My Father's Dragon and Katherine Applegate's The One and Only Ivan. Under the guidance and care of our expert teachers, students will explore these novels’ elements; learn the vocabulary that will aid comprehension; write effectively about the stories’ key events, characters, and themes; discuss thoughts, feelings, and insights about the books during live class; and celebrate the joys of reading.
Note: Reading Club courses require the additional purchase of two novels. These are not included in the price of the course. You may purchase through the links below:
