In response to the unprecedented shifts that COVID 19 is having on our educational system The Future School is working to provide learners with more than just worksheets to complete at home. We understand that some people may not have devices to access online resources and tools, but some do, so let’s not hold them back!

Scroll down to Sign-Up for our Clubs! Participants will need to have online computer access. These clubs are free, except for the cost of materials, but are trying to make most of those free also.

THE PROCESS EXPLAINED

  1. The group selects a book to read from a recommended selection.

  2. Everyone takes turns reading a chapter aloud to the group each day, while another member facilitates the questions for that chapter.

  3. Each person writes a chapter summary in Google Docs.

  4. A Book Club Mentor, who is an adult who has agreed to support a student, reads the summary and asks questions based that was written.

  5. The student revises the summary based on the questions asked.

  6. We repeat steps 2 - 5 until the book is finished.

  7. The group creates a review either in the form of a podcast, blog entry or video.

  8. We publish the review online!
