Description
This is the perfect no-prep reading comprehension activity to start in your classroom for either distance learning or in-person instruction. Conduct literature circles or book clubs in your class by creating small groups and assigning students a novel study and roles each week. The group members will prepare their role and present to their groups, which is perfect for developing critical thinking, reading comprehension, book analysis and inferencing strategies for upper-elementary or middle school students. The prompts for each role have been carefully thought out to better suit older students and promote the deeper and more complex thinking we try to get them to do while analyzing a novel.
Once you set this up in your classroom, it will continue to run itself meaning it gives you a break from extensive lesson planning!
Please note: novels are NOT included but I have listed a few suggestions!
