Discussion Begins!

A sign of definite intelligence - The Vox Book Club (The Spokesman-Review)

Alllllrighty! The day has come - The Vox Book Club's first official discussion! ....(*suspense music* - dumm dummm duummmmm!!)

OK - So here's how it's going down: There will be 4 seperate posts - As you smarty-pants people can probably guess, one for each section of The Prologue (the reading assigned last week.)

Like most book clubs, (but more fun than English class),  there will be questions. Questions that we find on the internet, questions that we make up, and questions inspired from the awesome-ness of the text.  But feel free to ask your own questions. This is discussion - we want to squeeze as much conversation as possible out of you folks. State your opinions :  what you like - what you don't like - what you're scared of - what makes you want to dance. Everything.

Remember: More reading assigned! Arrival on Himmel Street and Growing Up A Saumensch...(dummm dummm dummmmmm!!!) 

 Wanna discuss that Friday?

Enjoy!

 

In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
