This is a great resource for teachers who want to make the most out of their students Literature Circle experiences!!! These graphic organizers and criteria sheets help students see the underlying concepts of novels they are reading in groups. As a teacher of Lit. Circles, I always got frustrated when I didn't hear groups discussing the themes, or traits of characters, or why the setting was purposeful, so I developed this packet of 27 different mini-lessons.

These are not mini-lessons. They are really graphic organizers/worksheets. The product is toooo expensive!!!! Not what I thought it would be.

What a great package! So much to work with here. Will be great with my Freshmen this year when we lit circle with Great Expectations. Thanks Michele for putting together such a comprehensive lit circles package!
