Junior Great Books (JGB) is a division of the The Great Books Foundation. JGB offers extensive reading and language arts curricula. Student enrollment is open to all interested 1st-8th grade students on a first come-first served basis. Each week a selected classic literature piece is discussed using the “shared inquiry” method, which encourages students to support their thoughts and ideas with evidence. The goal is to improve critical thinking skills, reading comprehension, and application of ideas. A group of 6-8 students meets weekly during this 6-week program running in January and February each year. For more information on the program or becoming a facilitator, contact Katie Hodges, Enrichment Coordinator, at Katie.hodges@sthubert.org or extension 339.
