NO PREP This set of 6 student task cards and a teacher record sheet will guide your students to independently prepare for their next Literature Circle meeting. Each student within the group can be assigned a different literature related task. Teacher planning sheet and teacher instructions are also included. Simply print, add your set of reading books and go! Tasks Included: ♦Travel Tracer ♦Vocabulary Enricher ♦Summariser ♦Discussion Director ♦Literary Luminary ♦Connector You can use these cards to set your students off on independent preparation tasks and then guide the discussion yourself once they have prepared, or you can use one of the students to guide the discussion if you prefer that the students work independently. In my classroom, at the start of the new school year when the students are new to this type of task, I ask students to pair up to prepare together. This helps to promote relevant discussion prior to the group meeting and students feel more confident.
