Lit circles

Much of the management of my Lit circles is left up to the students. I have them meeting on Mondays & Thursdays. They are working on their role sheets at home or during their ILE time. Their reading gets done either during| SSR, on their ILE time or at home. I try to stay out of their way as much as possible...I'm using lit circles as one part of my reading program. I want this to be their time to discuss books, connect with books, grow to love books the way that people who have read good books do. I've been able to have as many as 6 groups going at one time. This was possible because my kids were | |
really engaged by their books...they were totally caught up in the charm, magic, impact and appeal of the literature. When that happens, the management takes care of itself.I'm getting long winded. If you'd like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to contact me. I'd love to know what materials you're using and how they are working.
