This course is designed to offer a monthly book club style meeting for P - 12 teachers. This academic year's course contains all new book titles. Each month we will read a common book(s) and come together to talk about the book. In this way, we will develop and foster a reading life for each participant, which can then be showcased to participants in academic institutions. In addition, we will discuss how the book and/or books like it can be included in the classroom and/or curriculum. We will also share suggestions of additional books in this genre or similar for our own reading and/or for our importance in the educational setting.
