About This Program

Course Overview

Bear Book Club is the first of its kind to integrate foundational skills, reading comprehension strategies, and rich literacy experiences with explicit social skills and activities that foster students’ growth as responsible, caring, and collaborative leader. Our unique Alday-Butler curriculum and 5X reading method enhances the academic intensity of students and helps them find the joy of reading and have fun learning based on an active learning culture rather than a passive one. This course is designed to master Common Core literacy standards and their confidence in engaging with peers. Students will be developing their debate skills and their ability to acknowledge and understand different perspectives. Students will be working towards expanding their thinking and creative and logical thought processes.
