Mystery Book Club
The Mystery Book Club will listen to one book this summer at an age appropriate level read aloud by me. This group must be committed to all summer from the week of June 1st through the week of August 31st, with the exception of weeks Miss Shauna is away. If you have to miss for vacation, that's okay! Let me know and I will record the session! We will look at and learn:
-mystery elements
-what makes a good clue?
-how to make predictions and where to find the evidence?
-what is suspense?
-how to be observant
-keep a "journal" documenting our reading as if we were the detectives to work on summation skills
-listening comprehension
