That is SUCH a great title! Make sure you let Leslie know you are doing
that--maybe she could join your club for one of your meetings:)

You could use Flipgrid to have members of the club record short videos
based on various prompts if they are students that don't know one
another very well--or even if they do it's a fun way to interact.

And I would utilize strategies from regular book clubs...maybe assign
different discussion leaders or have students collect questions about the
reading or for the author. If you us Google, Jamboard could be cool for
this!

Just some ideas off the top of my head. I think this topic could be a great
future CASL PD!!
