Today's Class and Tonight's Homework - Tuesday, February 14, 2017
Agenda:
Literature Circle Prep
I am SO excited to begin our Literature circles today, ultimately a fun book group activity. You were given a packet to guide you the next two-three weeks in your lit circles. You chose from the following book titles, "Courage & Defiance", "Sarah's Key", "In My Hands", and "The Bielski Brothers" and "We Are Witnesses". If you were absent today you will have the opportunity to pick your book as soon as I see you again! Students then created a reading schedule that they agreed upon and work in their circles will continue tomorrow!
So to summarize :-)
1.) Literature circle information (what it is and what the roles are)
2.) Assigning of books
3.) First group meeting
