Standards

RL6.3 Describe how a story's plot unfolds in a series of episodes
RL6.4 Determine the meaning of unknown words & phrases

Rules for Lit Circle Discussions:

The Discussion Director is in charge. They facilitate the conversation.

Sharing goes in this order:

1. The summarizer - Begin by sharing your summary. Take time to discuss what what included in the summary, and if anything needed to be added or removed. Be sure to focus on all the important information

2. The Character Captain - Don't just read from your graphic organizer. Share about the characters. Ask your group member what their thoughts are on the characters.

3. The Vocab Enricher - do not just tell your group member what the word means. Take them to that page in the text. Ask them what they think it means. Discuss. Then reveal what the word means

4. The Conflict Evaluator - Don't just read from your graphic organizer. Share about the conflicts. Ask your group member what their thoughts are, and if they were able to identify any other conflicts.

5. The Mood & Tone Analyzer - Don't just read from your graphic organizer. Engage your group in a discussion, maybe with a question. Ask your group member what their thoughts are.

6. The Illustrator (If your Group has 7 People) Don't just show your illustration. Explain it to your group, and tell them about the scene(s) that you thought were important to illustrate.

7. The Discussion Director - You are last because you can only engage everyone in a discussion about the questions once everyone is on the same page. Pick your best questions and allow everyone to share, and discuss.

* Be sure to use the 4 C's of 21st Century Learning

* Each member is expected to contribute to the discussion

• When you share, REMEMBER TO USE QUESTIONS TO ENGAGE THE REST OF YOUR GROUP MEMBERS! 
• When you share it is your job to get the rest of the group involved. 
• The best way to do this is to ask questions, like: what do you think, how did this make you feel, etc. Use open ended questions.
