Literature Circles

We are now starting, this week, literature circles in class. This will be a time when students will sit down with other students to discuss what they have read and share assignments. Each student will have a calendar with page numbers, meeting dates, and assignments he or she needs to complete. This is something most students in the classroom will participate in, but not all. One group chose their book today with the other groups to follow. They will need to stay on top of their reading in order to participate. Please ask your child questions about literature circles when he or she receives his or her notebook and calendar.
