AHS English Department 2nd Annual Book Study
We would like to invite you to participate in a summer Books Study! We have been influenced and motivated this year by the books Focus, by Mike Schmoker, and The Art of Slow Reading, by Thomas Newkirk, and would like to hear your thoughts about their ideas and suggestions so we can continue to learn and apply what works in our classrooms next school year.
If you are interested, simply buy one or both books, read them at your leisure, and then come with your thoughts to either or both of these dates: Friday, June 27 and Tuesday, July 22. We plan to meet at 6:00 at Boulder Creek in Brownsburg on June 27 and collectively decide at that dinner where to meet on July 22.
It's fine to read just one of the books or even just come to dinner and join the discussion. If you have questions, please see Sheri Irk at AMS North or Callista or Catherine at the High School. Please R.S.V.P. if you would like to join us on the 26th.
