In honor of Valentines Day yesterday I would like to show some love to my book club at Shippensburg University. This book club is based on children's literature and is to help further our understanding of what we talk about in our reading classes. We just had a meeting last Tuesday and I created these adorable bookmarks from paint samples to give out. It was extremely simple and inexpensive to do. The idea came from onefantastichousewife.blogspot.com.
Our first book that we are reading and talking about is The World According to Humphrey, by Betty G. Birney. This book will have students laughing hysterically as the little witty class pet hamster helps his classmates. While we are reading the book we stop and think about what we can talk about with our class, such as certain characteristics of the book or why the author decided to do what she did throughout the book.
Here are group pictures of us holding some of our favorite mentor texts! I will keep you updated on what we talk about in each of our meetings.
