Literature Circles, Plot Structure Poster for Any Novel or Short Story

It's time to collaborate and get your students moving! Teachers love using literature circles for small groups, book clubs, and collaborative learning. Your students will love their collaborative poster for their novel or short story's plot diagram. This digital download includes the teacher procedure, suggestions, step by step set up, story map collaborative poster printable, student reflection questions, literature circle rubric, and Freytag pyramid poster rubric.

This classroom activity allows students to engage with others. Students will work together in small groups to share ideas and respond to tasks and their text. Students who have a hard time sitting quietly will find this activity helpful.

Teachers are always looking for new ways to differentiate their lessons and include more collaborative projects for their students. As an English teacher, I have found that using Literature Circles work wonderfully.

If you are limited in your book choice, this also works well with whole-class novels, where the novel is being read in small groups.

Assessment
