Oak Middle School’s Silent Book Club

Silent Book Club is about community: hanging out together, reading your book, having your snack, and sharing what you’re reading with others. There’s no pressure to read the same thing as everyone else; instead, you share what you’re already reading and learn a little about what others are reading.

 

We’ll meet every-other-week on Mondays at 2:50 for 1 hour. The first 10 minutes will be social time to chat about your book with others. Then, we’ll all read silently for 40 minutes together. The last 10 minutes will also be social time to chat about what you read and what others were reading.

 

A book, a snack, and a willingness to “just be in the moment” for an hour.
