Literature Circles

I like literature circles.  Take 4 or 5 students who get to choose a book to read together.  Add multiple opportunities for them to share their thoughts, questions, and connections.  Continue to add time for reflection and extra thinking.  Stir in a little curiosity.  Sprinkle with effective communication.  And, of course, top it all off with bits of laughter!  Then you have a successful, and tasty, literature circle!

I look forward to hearing and reading more about your thinking, your responses, and your creative expressions on your blog!  Have fun with this!
