Course Description

In this My First Book Club class, we will enjoy the fun and adventurous story Mercy Watson Is Missing! by Kate DiCamillo. Students will listen to an engaging, expressive read-aloud as we follow Mercy the pig on her unexpected adventure around the neighborhood. As we read, I will pause to ask simple, guided questions to help students think about what is happening, make predictions, and talk about the story in a natural and low-pressure way. Students do not need to read independently. This class is designed to build comprehension through listening, discussion, and interaction. Parents are welcome to support as needed. After the story, students will complete a hands-on response by drawing or building something from the story. This helps bring the book to life while reinforcing key ideas in a fun, memorable way. This class focuses on helping young learners move from simply learning to read → to understanding and enjoying stories. Students will practice: - Retelling parts of the story - Understanding characters and their actions - Making simple predictions - Connecting to the story through creativity It’s the perfect blend of storytelling, discussion, and hands-on learning for early readers. *The Mercy Watson books can be read in any order, so you are welcome to jump into class even if you haven't read the other books. *
