I would like to get some suggestions from you guys on ideas for starting some sort of book club, writing club, poetry club, etc. to do with students either during lunch, before or after school. What things have you done? This is my third year as a reading specialist at a K-5 school.I don't know if I want to target remedial readers or high readers. My principal is all for doing things above and beyond and I would like to bring something fresh to the table this year. I appreciate any suggestions you may have.

I'll be returning to the classroom (second grade) after a year's leave and want to utilize reading response journals. I'd love to hear ideas on how these are done in your classrooms, especially primary classes. I can't find much specific info in the professional reading I've been doing. Journals are mentioned, but the details are lacking. In the past I've had students use prompts (always modeled, of course), with mixed results. Any help you can give would be appreciated.
