Most of my book clubbers love mystery stories, and that’s why the A to Z Mysteries are a great favourite. It’s time to introduce another series–Ada Lace, On the Case! Like Maya from Maya and the Robot, Ada Lace is a scientist and inventor. How does she solve the mystery of a dog that has suddenly gone missing?
As we find out, here’s what we’ll do!
Picture Description
Let’s begin by looking at the cover of Ada Lace, On the Case. What do we learn about the protagonist just from the picture?What, in your opinion, is Ada most interested in?
Field Journal
The cover of Ada Lace, On the Case has the protagonist holding a field guide. What is a field guide, and what is a field journal? I will ask my book clubbers to keep a field journal for ten days, as we read this book. During the last class, each of them will share what they jotted down!
Gadgets
Ada Lace has all kinds of gadgets that she uses during her investigation. What kinds of gadgets would you like to have? What would you use them for?
Join my book club!
Book clubs are a space to share ideas and develop skills like critical thinking and communication. Over the last six years, I’ve seen marked differences in the ways in which children express themselves before and after reading together. Plus, the sooner they begin to develop a love for books, the likelier they are to become lifelong readers!
