Communicating via Facebook


We soon realized that the Facebook page we created was a fantastic way to communicate with our Book Club.  It provided a quick and easy avenue for posting about discussion questions, meeting times, and overall questions to the entire group.  We also employed Facebook’s polling system to decide what books we would read the next semester, which we found to be successful.  We first asked the group what books they would be most interested in reading during our last meeting of the first semester, then included 10 different junior level books in our poll.  Here is a photo of that poll:
We also realized that the group page was soon becoming a place to discuss other aspects of literacy, such as new book releases or interactions with authors.  The following photographs are excellent examples of how we became a close knit group of book and literacy lovers:
