Bluestem Award Book Club
2019 - 2020
2019 - 2020

The Bluestem Award is designed for students in grades 3-5 who are ready for longer titles than found on the Monarch list, but not quite ready for the sophistication of some of the Rebecca Caudill titles.
Named in honor of Big Bluestem, which is the Illinois state Prairie grass, the award may include both timeless classics and current titles, as well as books that have appeared on the Monarch and Rebecca Caudill lists.
Students are challenged to read 5 Bluestem books (or more!) and complete a project for each.
The project choices are: slide show, 90 Second Summary, or an art project of their choice.
Each project has to show understanding of book's plot, characters and message. The deadline for reading 5 books is January 27, 2020. A celebratory lunch will be held for those who complete the challenge
All titles will be available in our school library, the North Branch and the Main Branch of the EPL.
Ebooks and audio books are available.
