We hope you will join us for our first ever Spanish Book Club for children in grades 3 – 6 at the Goleta Valley Library! This new book club is aimed at Spanish-speaking children who would like to improve their Spanish reading and comprehension skills. Each book will be covered over three meetings where students will get to practice their Spanish vocabulary as they discuss what they’ve read and theorize what will come next in the book. The book club will help children improve their Spanish language skills by:

• Deepening their appreciation and understanding of Spanish-language text
• Extending their thinking to process and interpret different perspectives and opinions of their peers
• Expanding their ability to express ideas orally using academic language
• Providing an authentic context for applying norms for listening and speaking

The Spanish Book Club meets the 2nd and 4th Sunday of every month at 3:00 p.m. at the Library (500 N. Fairview Avenue). Space is limited and registration is required in person at the library or by calling 964-7878.
