Humanities: Book Discussion Groups

Students are still working in their book discussion groups. They have all had a meeting this week with their groups to discuss and share their ideas, thinking and evidence. 

1. Students should brainstorm in their journal all ideas and update every time they read the setting, tone, mood and character traits. They should be adding pages as well so they can find the evidence easily. 
2. Students then write up their good copy and upload it to their book discussion google classroom. This piece of writing should be their best piece of revised writing as it is being graded. 

Below are strategies they have been using with our in-class book, A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park and they are using in their book discussion groups. 

Use these to write about your reading.
