Book Groups!

This term we have been doing book groups! Last year we did book groups so it wasn't a new experience, although I knew I would have fun! I enjoyed the in depth discussions I had with my group and it was a bonus to be able to have food at our meetings. The book I chose was Tangerine! It was about a boy by the name of Paul Fisher and after moving to a new home in Tangerine County, Florida, he discovers more and more unusual things about Tangerine. He asks himself "where does a sinkhole swallow a school? Where does a fire burn underground? Where does lightning strike at the same time everyday?" Paul doesn't understand anything and doesn't know that this is only the beginning. Things are about to get a lot weirder!

My group consisted of Paolo, Renzo, Astin, James, Matthew and I. I thought our group worked well together, as everyone contributed thoughtfully to each discussion. It was a a fun few weeks and for me book groups wasn't about eating food, it was about co-operating with others and I think my group did that very well!
