The Reading Club at Southeast Christian Church will gather every morning, the week of July 27-31, through Zoom Meetings and Google Classrooms. Using Google Classrooms, we will connect with our reading club participants outside of the Zoom Meetings.

The Google Classroom is where support materials will be shared. Read aloud gatherings through Zoom will give all participants the opportunity to hear stories with others.

Small group conversations about those stories will take place in Zoom "Breakout" rooms. All this happens through the support of retired classroom teachers who continue to relish their time with readers of all ages.

Open-ended, compelling questions will fuel our conversations. Although we hope the participants gain much from hearing wonderful stories, our main goal is connection. We are coming to the table as people who hear and people who listen. In conversing about books we will not be looking for a particular answer.

We all come to a story from our own unique place. We look forward to conversations with our participants, always interested in what they think without intention to shape or change their thoughts.

It is our hope to be communicators who want to connect.
