Enlightium Academy Support

Book Clubs (Grades 3-12)

TABLE OF CONTENTS


Overview

  • During Student Social Week, Enlightium Students can select to join a Book Club. 
  • In the following week, Enlightium’s Book Club Coordinator will provide each student with books to choose from based on the number of registrants per grade level. Examples may include The Hobbit for younger students or Moby Dick for older students. Each Book Club will have a maximum number of participants, so students will need to quickly select the book they are most interested in.
  • Over the course of the semester, students read the book on their own and then discuss it with an Enlightium teacher and other students during the Book Club.
  • Our book selections vary and some may touch on more mature themes. Your guidance will help your child navigate these themes and ensure a positive reading experience.
  • Stay engaged, explore the chosen books together, and discuss any questions that arise. Your input matters and contributes to a rewarding literary journey for your child.
