05.26 - Revisions, Groundwork, Quote Analysis

At the beginning of class today, I returned work that was submitted last week and handed out updated grade report sheets. People then got together with their literature circle groups and worked on revisions, reading, groundwork for their role this week, and/or the quote analysis work that we reviewed last week.

I checked in individually with people on grades, assignments, and questions about their work for literature circles this week. In the last part of class, people responded to the prompt below which we took some time to discuss before the bell.
