Book Club Jr.
Mondays, 6:00 – 6:45 PM 
April 6, May 4 
A fun way to encourage and nurture a love of reading in 1st & 2nd grade students. There will be casual conversation about the title of the month as we share our thoughts and favorite moments of the book. Each meeting will have a craft, themed activity, or snack that corresponds with that month's book. Students should read the book* prior to the meeting so they're better able to participate in the discussion.
*Having the book read to them is fine, too!
Grades 1-2.
 
Registration required.
