ELL Literacy Circle

Tuesday, November 8, 2022
10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Business and Community Center

Have you ever wanted to be part of a library book discussion group, but worried that your English language skills were not strong enough?

In this ELL Literacy Circle for high-intermediate and advanced level English learners, we will read and discuss an American novel with the support of Margaret Feit Clarke, an experienced ESL teacher from the ELL Parent Center. Participants will strengthen their language skills while learning more about great literature, American culture, and the Skokie community. Limited to 16 participants.

This group meets every Tuesday for 14 weeks: September 13-December 13.

This fall we will discuss Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry by Mildred D. Taylor, the story of a young girl and her courageous family living in the American South during the Great Depression.

Books will be available at the first meeting, and are for participants to read and keep.
