![]() Book Club: A Literature-Based Curriculum distills years of classroom-centered research into a practical guide for implementing Book Club in your own classroom. The handbook shows you how to seamlessly integrate instruction in reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Features include comprehensive background information, teaching tips, detailed lesson plans based on award-winning trade books, assessment rubrics, and reproducible blackline masters. Lesson plans in the handbook have been developed and tested by teachers to provide you with strong models for your own teaching. Examples of students' work show you what you can expect from your own students as they gain competence in responding to literature. Reproducible "think sheets" support students' thinking and writing about literature and help them plan and evaluate their own work. Everything you need to start using the Book Club program in your classroom is contained in Book Club: A Literature-Based Curriculum. Its five fully developed theme-based units make it a great value, too! |
