Book Discussion

Graphic Novel Book Discussion Group

Educators of grades 5-12 are invited to reserve their place in our Summer Book Discussion Group (limited to 15 participants per session). We will meet over Zoom/Meets in three evening sessions to discuss ways to integrate graphic novels into Social Studies, Science, and English Language Arts curriculum. Books will be provided and read the books prior to the sessions.
