Beginning Literature Circles...

Finally, a little opportunity for choice in what you do!

We're beginning literature circles.  Students will work in small groups to read and discuss a book of their choosing (from a list provided by my, so...limited choice).

Each group will be responsible for:

  • setting a reading schedule.
  • preparing for discussions.
  • conducting academic discussions about their reading.
  • completing regular check-in tasks.
  • completing and presenting a final project which shows the changes which take place within a dynamic character.
Groups will discuss about once a week through this unit, which will end with the completion of their books and projects just before Winter Break.
