Produktbeschreibung

Welcome to The Power of Discussion: Literature Circles in the Classroom, a guide for educators on how to implement and facilitate literature circles in their classrooms. In this book, you will find explanations and strategies for creating effective literature circles, including how to choose appropriate texts, assign roles, assess student learning, and provide feedback.

Through literature circles, students have the opportunity to engage in deep discussions and critical thinking, while developing important skills such as communication, collaboration, and analysis. In addition to traditional texts such as novels and poetry, this book explores the benefits of incorporating non-traditional texts like graphic novels and films, as well as ways to differentiate instruction for students of varying abilities.

You'll learn how to overcome common challenges such as student resistance and group dynamics, and how to use data to inform instruction and challenge students who are ready for more. The Power of Discussion also includes real-life examples and student reflections to help you see the impact of literature circles on student learning.

Whether you're a seasoned literature circle facilitator or just starting out, The Power of Discussion is a valuable resource for any teacher looking to create a dynamic and engaging learning environment in their classroom.

Autorenporträt

Cheryl Angst has been teaching in the classroom for over twenty-five years. With a Masters in curriculum and instruction, her passion centers around finding tips, tricks, and strategies to enhance her practice.

Cheryl is a firm believer that learning should be fun for both the students and the teacher. If it isn't engaging, or doesn't spark joy, it's likely able to be done differently.

The "Quick Reads for Busy Educators" series is designed to maximize the precious time educators have. Each book is short enough to be read in an hour or less, but contains a wealth of information on the topic. Some books are overviews of strategies and approaches (enough to help educators decide if it's for them) and some are deeper dives into specific aspects of those larger approaches. This allows busy educators to grab the information they need quickly and efficiently.
