Parents of Tweens (9-14) discussion

Do you have any ideas for the group? Please share them here.

Here are some ideas. Let me know what you would be most interested in seeing or participating in:

*Monthly group reads and discussion
*Reading Challenges
*Information on content and age-appropriateness
*Lists of award-winning or award-nominated books
*Giveaways
*Information on sales/promotions for books, e-books, audiobooks, etc.
*Resource lists for parents and/or tweens
*Teacher resources

I like the resources idea, probably because I'm a teacher/author involved in such. Just added a new thread under resources...

I'd like ideas/recommendation on age-appropriate books as I too, am a teacher (Grade 6). I'd be interested in world literature, as that reflects the global community... Thanks!

Since I can't see the list, I like 3, 4 & 7 :)

Love the ideas of reading challenges and monthly group reads and discussion.

A friend of mine is a teacher at a high school here in Denver, and just recently had an author visit her freshman english class. I know she was looking for more interactive opportunities with tweens, as well as their parents - so maybe that could be a possibility? Skype visits for the monthly discussion?

I'm new to the group, but as a teacher and a mom I'd love to see Teacher Resources, giveaways, and suggestions for books for boys who want funny, smart, exciting books.

Welcome to the group, Sandra!
