Today we’re starting book club.  Most students will read a story during the week and practice answering text dependent questions related to that book.  The first book we’ll look at is Radio 5th Grade.

This is a Gordon Korman book.  He’s written books you might have heard of before.  His books include: Swindle, Ungifted and the 39 Clues series.  This book is about Benjy Driver, who’s passion is focused on a school radio show.

He soon finds out that having a hit radio show is a seriously hard thing to manage.  He struggles with keeping his homework exploits a secret; a crazy bully reading stories about kittens; and an uncooperative parrot; in order, to keep his radio station show afloat.
