What educators are saying

Great resource. This is a fun way for students to show their understanding of the book they read. Students enjoyed doing the activities. Thanks

Description

Your readers can use this product with any novel any time of year which means once you teach the roles, you can use this project again and again. This activity emphasizes group discussions by keeping the writing tasks short and sweet (like many of your students). Your readers can show off their strengths with this set of tasks through book clubs or Literature Circles with this twist.

  • instructions to set up book clubs or reading groups.
  • lesson plan on how to teach the various "roles" or each activity with modifications for differentiation.
  • student agreements for accountability.
  • student pages for each role.

  • student reflection and assessment pages
  • rubric for assessment of all student work.
  • outlines the connections with the Alberta Program of Studies for Grades 4-6.
  • outlines the connections with the CCSS for Language Arts.

Your budding artists, writers, and future politicians will all have the chance to show off their finest skills. Finished projects make a great bulletin board!
