About

Hello and welcome to the Science Fiction Book Club!!

Throughout this series, we will read and discuss various science fiction novels and maybe even a series!

I will choose the first book. For the rest of the books, we will vote as a group from a list I created. The list will have 3-5 books to choose from!

My goal for this series is for you to learn and sharpen your ability to analyze language, character development, and most importantly, have fun!

In each session, you will be able to discuss and share opinions about the book with other learners. On some occasions, we will do a Kahoot or Gimkit trivia game!

Please come to the sessions having read the assigned pages! Also, optionally, come with some questions for discussion!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Attendance is recommended, but not mandatory.

Each session will slightly build off each other, so it would be beneficial to join each session!

Please reach out to me if you know that you will be unable to join the session!

About the Tutor

Hii, I’m Jenan. I’m a high school senior from Michigan. I've been tutoring (not on SchoolHouse) for almost 3 years, and I am happy to be continuing my tutoring journey on here! In my free time, I like to bake and listen to music. Feel free to message me whenever!

Session 1

Other Topics

This first meeting will be short, around 30 minutes, the other sessions will be around an hour!

In this session, we will have a quick overview of this series and I will assign our first book!

Our first book will be "The Electric State" by Simon Stålenhag. It is pretty short and has some unique pictures! I think this would be a good tone-setter for this series. We will do longer novels during this series!

Please read pages 1-40 (up to "The Mountains") by next week!
