Literacy Circles for Division 2


Literacy circles are small, temporary discussion groups of students who read the same work of literature. Each member agrees to take specific responsibilities during discussion sessions.  They share their ideas on the characters and the plot.  

These breakout circles meet regularly as they progress through the reading of the book and the discussion roles change at each meeting. This technique is a great opportunity for these Grade 4-6 students at Dr. A.R. Lord Elementary to develop teamwork and collaboration.
