Book Club
Club Description: Book club meets once a week in a safe setting to allow readers the opportunity to discuss books in an informal setting. Students enjoy the experience by meeting with friends, reading and discussing books together, as a whole or small group. Meetings tend to come to life with discussions, arts and crafts, and small celebrations once a month. All meetings are supervised and are led by the librarian at RTHS. Students are also given the opportunity to be part of an author visit, at least once a year, where they can discuss the author’s novel, the writing and publishing process. In addition, the book club students are responsible for writing reviews for the books in which they read. Students are able to increase their comprehension and ability to discuss what they know. It is a great opportunity to turn reading into a social activity which encourages our students here at RTHS to continue reading for pleasure and meaning.
