In literature circles, small groups of students gather together to discuss a piece of literature in depth. These grade-appropriate chapter book sets will allow me to implement literature circles in my classroom. Students benefit and gain a greater understanding of what they read through peer discussion and working together. Literature Circles allow students to become critical thinkers as they read, share thoughts, ask questions, and respond to reading selections. Students are excited to learn from one another and to work in small groups to read and complete tasks. The comfy chairs will be utilized for seating during literature circle time.
