Clubs

Book Club

Are you a second or third grader who loves reading? Then Ms. Easley’s Book Club is for you. Students will read in small groups or independently to improve reading comprehension and fluency. The Book Club will also take occasional after-school field trips that align with the themes in the stories they read. For more information, contact Ms. Easley.

Literacy Circle

Ms. Buford is having a Literacy Circle for fourth through sixth graders on Wednesdays from 2:30-3:30. Students will share experiences connected to literature beyond the classroom and into the community. Literature Circle is a collaborative and student-centered reading strategy. Students begin by selecting a book together, and then they are introduced to the four jobs in the Literature Circle: Discussion Director, Literacy Luminary, Vocabulary Enricher and Checker. In this way, students engage with texts and one another, taking control of their literacy in positive and rewarding ways. For information, contact Ms. Buford.

Newspaper Club

Chase's Newspaper Club publishes a monthly newspaper about academic, student and calendar highlights. The club is open to students in grades 4-6.
