BAXTER+BOOK+CLUB

The Baxter Book Club is open to all interested 3rd-6th graders.

 Our next round of book club will begin the week of February 22. The title will be...//The Great Brain// by John D. Fitzgerald!

 Third and 4th grade book clubbers began the year reading //Escaping the Giant Wave// by Peg Kehret. Many enjoyed the lunchtime read aloud of the book, then shared their thoughts and opinions at our discussion on Oct. 14.

 Fifth and 6th graders read //From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler// by E.L. Konigsburg. A number of these students had gone to see the play a couple of years ago and had read the book on their own. Our discussion was very interesting, as times have changed since the book was written in the 1960s.

The book sets we use for the Baxter Book Club are purchased with funds raised through our semi-annual book fairs. Thank you for your generous support of this program!
