[CASL-L] Student-led Book Discussions

[Catherine Ryan]

Yes, our middle school also wants to use more student-led book discussions.
I would love to hear ideas!

Has anyone had a chance to create a Padlet for the 2024 Nutmeg Nominees for
Intermediate and Middle School? I sincerely appreciate you sharing if it's
not too much to ask.  I see some sharing on the Nutmeg site from
past years. *Thank you!*
