What educators are saying

These question cards were an excellent addition to my book club unit. Students who finished discussing early were able to extend their conversation using these cards. Thank you!
Great tool to use with my book clubs! It helps to get the dust going with thought provoking questions.

Description

Book club discussion question cards are a must-have when running book clubs in the classroom. Say goodbye to the same old questions and give your students rich new question prompts to elevate their literature circles and book club discussions. These cards and questions also offer students more choice in their written responses.

Included are 120 book club discussion question cards to get fiction readers thinking more deeply. The prompts are great scaffolds and guide readers to elevate the quality of questions they pose in a book club. The cards are appropriate for students in grades 3 through high school. The variety and complexity of the questions makes it easy to differentiate!

The questions are organized and the borders are color coded into these categories;

* character

* plot

* message/theme

* summary

* personal reflections/connections

* critic comments

If color printing is an issue, just set your printer to black and white only and print the product. Use the task cards any way you like. Give a set to each book club, have students choose cards from of a pile, staple some to a bulletin board as reference points for small group meetings, or however you see fit.

All 120 questions are ALSO listed on print and go single pages. (see thumbnail example above). These are great for quick reference, to include in a conferring binder, to staple into student notebooks for reading responses, or as ideas for book club meetings.

The question pages are now also DIGITAL through the TPT Digital layer. If you would like to assign book talk questions to be responded to remotely or in digital format, you can now select and assign any (or all) of the question pages to your students. You can also edit my directions and format on these pages if you'd like to alter the task.

The questions range in complexity. Some are straightforward for a third or fourth grade classroom, while others may better fit middle or high school. I hope that you will find many questions within this product to guide the variety of readers that you teach.

If you would prefer an ALL DIGITAL GOOGLE CLASSROOM set of the same BOOK CLUB slides, please check out my new product: Reading Response and Book Club Digital Slides for Google Classroom. In this product you can assign one or many questions at a time, have students type their responses directly on the slide, and submit back to you.

Thank you so much for considering my product!
