Lit Circles 2.0

Lit Circles 2.0 is traditional Lit Circles with the addition of technology. Students still read a selection of their text and respond to it. Instead of writing their response down, students have the opportunity to contribute to a lit circle blog. They can post written or video responses. Students read each other's contributions and can make comments or ask questions. They then meet in person and discuss further any questions and ideas related to the text.

Here students are posting written and video responses to the lit circle blog.

Here is a sample of students meeting in their lit circle group, discussing what they wrote, read, and thought about.
