• Mr. Hernandez is overseeing the after-school Book Club at Brazos Bend Elementary. Book club is for students in grades 3-5 only. The purpose of the book club is to: engage students in different styles of reading, enhance critical thinking skills, and to promote literacy through new approaches. Students will be reading the 2025-2026 Bluebonnet books and will pick one book to create a project over. These lists are created by the Texas Library Association and represent some of the best new books for children. Projects should be completed by the students and reflect authentic student work. Parents are encouraged to help their child, but the project should reflect the abilities of the student. Student projects will be submitted to the campus and this year BBE will host the district showcase for Book Cirque.  Projects from across the district will be put on display for all student participants.

    Book Cirque is a district showcase of projects created by students in other elementary schools. The showcase will be in April and all projects are due at the end of March. Students can create the project using different media forms.

     

    There will be 3 different types of projects available to create.

    1. Digital project- Movie Trailer or PowerPoint as examples
    2. Physical project- Painting, poster or Alternate Book cover creation, anything really.
    3. Game project- Original game board creation

     

    The Book Club will begin in November and will be held after school on Thursdays from 3:50pm to 4:40pm and will continue until projects are due for Book Cirque. The club will be limited to 20 students. There is no after-school transportation for this club; students in the club will need a ride or permission to walk home.
