05.18 - Grade Reports and Revisions

At the beginning of class today, I handed out grade report sheets and several students helped me to return work. We took some time to review requirements for the introductions/conclusions and roles that people were working in last week for their lit circles (see below).

Everyone then had time to work on their introduction and conclusion revisions as well as the work associated with their role in last weeks lit circle arrangement. During this time, I met individually with people to review their progress and answer any questions.
