Due 3/02/07: Final Lit Circle Reflection
In no less than ten (10) sentences, please reflect on your overall literature circle/small group activities. What did you find worked best in your groups? Did you prefer one style of literature circle-based techniques over the others? Do you understand the difference in actual literature circles vs. small group discussions about literature? Now that you've experienced a "full on" lit circle, do you see how it is different than the other ways we've been doing them? How do you think you can use them most effectively in your classrooms? Were you able to adequately explore your YA texts within the LC format? What questions do you still have about literature circles?
Reiteration: to get credit for this assignment, you must write no less than ten (10) sentences by Friday, March 2.
