Reading book club
I am uncertain whether the instructor will be joining us in the reading group, as it is a voluntary gathering for discussing a book.
The instructor did provide a brief overview of the club’s guidelines. Initially, all students were present, but the attendance has gradually decreased over time, although the instructor anticipated approximately six participants at each meeting.
The club emphasizes that there is no obligation to attend every scheduled meeting, as indicated on the poster. I appreciate this approach, as it reduces pressure on the students.
Time goes by participants rate are dropping. about 6 reders are in the club every week. reading lould in front of others is totally different feeling and concentration than read along. reading in sound feel more cautious numbers and specif names and more concentrate others reads and mine too.
In the previous session, some snacks and milk were provided. Following the conclusion of the last reading, we discussed our thoughts on the book club. The majority of us agreed on the importance of focusing more intently on each page and word, rather than simply reading along. This approach helps to ensure that we do not miss any sentences as we progress through the material.
Some of the author’s perspectives were particularly engaging, such as the idea that wheat is cultivated to spread its genes. The chapter on happiness was especially memorable, with all members expressing their enjoyment of it. It was a wonderful experience to read a book aloud with others. There was less pressure to attend every session.
If I missed a class, the organizer would kindly send a text message indicating which pages we had covered, allowing me to prepare for the next session. We will continue to discuss potential book selections. The organizer has chosen a few substantial books for us to consider. “Cosmos” has been selected as the next book.
