Learning Goals:

I am learning to

make interpretations from reading, ask critical questions, uncover perspectives, and engage in; conversations to form conclusions;
use evidence to support my ideas;
look for connections between my research and themes in novels I read.

We will begin by finalizing our preparations for our literature circle meeting #3.

We will meet with our Lit Circle groups to hold our third discussion. You will need your prepared notes for your role in the group and your novel. You might also want to have your Theme Graphic Organizer from yesterday handy.

Your Discussion Director will start, and each group member will have a chance to ask and respond to questions. (15min)

Post discussion, you will  reflect and assess how you did in your discussion today. (Include your notes)

Reflecting on #craftreconciliation

Finally, today I would like you to reflect on your learning in #craftreconciliation.
