Mock Newbery Book Club for students in Grades 3- 6

Do you like to read? Do you enjoy talking about books?  If so, join the Mock Newbery Book Club run by Mrs. Potter at the Plummer-Motz school and Mrs. C from Falmouth Memorial Library.  We will hold three meetings, October 28th, November 18th, and December 16th from 3:15 to 4:30 p.m. at the Plummer-Motz Library.  Those interested please sign up (forms available from Mrs. Potter and at the Falmouth Memorial Library)

Keep in mind the following expectations:
1. Each member is expected to read at least 2 books from the monthly reading list which will be posted on this blog. (http://falmouthmemocknewbery.blogspot.com/2010/08/first-reading-list-for-2011-mock.html)
2. Members will share their thoughts about the books they read at monthly book club meetings held after school in October, November, December at Plummer-Motz.
3. Members are expected to come to book club meetings prepared.  Being prepared means having read 2 books and being willing to share thoughts about the books.
4. Regular attendance at book club meetings is required to ensure the book club is a success.

For those unable to attend the meetings but would like to participate on January 3, 2011 at the Mock Newbery Election, read from the list and post your comments to the blog.  We expect all who wish to try guessing the next Newbery winner will have read at least six books from any of the three lists.

Have questions?  contact Mrs. Potter or Mrs C.
Happy reading!
