Weekly Groups for Spellers

At APT, we offer group options for spellers to engage socially with peers multiple days per week.

• Tuesday: Book club

  • Each week, spellers will read a designated portion of the book club book at home and then come in to discuss what they read as a group. Discussion questions will be posed to the group, but spellers are welcome to bring in their own questions as well if they would like to! This is a great group for advanced spellers, who are looking for a place to broaden their open communication with peers.

• Wednesday: Tween spelling group

  • This group is geared toward spellers in the 10-13 year old age range. In this group, students engage in a lesson with other peers who spell across a variety of topics. Spellers of all skill levels are welcome to participate in this group.

• Thursday: Teen/young adult discussion group

  • Our Thursday groups are discussion-based and available for open spellers who would like to have in-depth conversations with their peers, across a variety of topics across the categories of current events, creative expression, self exploration, and more.

• Friday: Alternating lesson/activity groups for teens/young adults

  • Our Friday groups alternate formats, every other week. Every two sessions will be related to one another- with session one being a lesson on a topic, and session two being an activity related to the lesson from session one (typically a craft or game). This group is great for spellers of all skill levels and is a great starting place for spellers with less experience.
