“Reading in Action 6 takes you on so many journeys through so many books filled with adventure. Every time we finish one book and move on to the next, it’s like going through a portal to another world. The projects to do together are so fun!”

“This course has helped me read better, faster, and much more efficiently through reading skills and fun in-class activities. While having fun with the books the teacher chose for us, we acquired the skill to analyze the passages and read between the lines. The homeworks are also amazing. Unlike the majority’s general idea of homework, the large projects assigned to us were not only awesome but also informative.”

“I recommend this class to other people because above just reading, it teaches you to write summaries and answer questions from a text. It is a class that helps you understand types of books such as fiction, fantasy, and nonfiction.”

“I would highly recommend this course for reading. Both the teacher and the books read were superb for this class. Breakout rooms were often used, allowing students to both learn to work with a partner and have fun doing it. My personal favorite class this year.”
