On today's podcast episode I am discussing 5 activities that go beyond the traditional book club for your students. Leesuh, a regular listener, inspired this episode with her question of how to help her higher students when she is holding intervention or small groups with her struggling readers.

We've all been there. Trying different activities that most other teachers have used (and seem to be using successfully) but are a hot mess in our own classroom.

What works for one teacher does not work for all teachers.

Listen to the episode to discover the 5 activities I recommend that are simple and easy to implement in your classroom. Best of all they will help your elementary students be engaged and independent while you are at your teacher table.
