ALTIUS BOOK CLUB

For the love of reading! Every child is a reader and needs to develop love of good literature in preparation for Year 7 and beyond.

Our Book Club program introduces a love of classic novels and well-known books for greater understanding of quality books.  Our book club will help encourage students to develop an understanding of the major literary elements of books.

Over the course of a term, students will be expected to read a book each four weeks to five weeks, so that they will read 3 to 3 quality novels.

• author
• setting
• main characters
• plot
• theme
• other underlying issues

Students will independent read sections of the book they are studying in Book Club at home as part assigned work. They are required to think/complete questions about a literary element of their book and bring their discussion to a Book Club in next meeting to be shared with their group.  Teachers will help students to develop a better understanding of their books.
