Love reading and sharing with your peers? Students will have the chance to read, write and talk with friends during "Book Club with Mr. Pete." All students will have the option to read the same book as other students simultaneously, or a book of their choice.

When concluding a book, students will create a short review describing why they would or would not recommend the book to another person.
