Joint class activities and interactive group work will be implemented to generate a fun learning environment.  A variety of reading sources (different levels) will be used, even some silly ones that will encourage fun and laughter.  Finally, by having a Rockstar Book Club, students will read and explore 2-3 chapter books per semester.
