Literature Circles

Well here we are in our temporary classroom... the art room!  Renovations are being done at most Ithaca schools this summer and to ensure they're done by the time school starts in September they're working on some of the rooms a little early!

Here a group reads The Secret School together.  One member of the group is the Discussion Director, another member is the Summarizer, another the Word Finder, another the Connector, another the Illustrator, another the Predictor, and the last is the Character Analyzer.  Students will rotate through these roles as they read through the chapters!
