Day 1 Passage Master Name: __Book:__ _

__Assignment: page to page Literature Circle's Name:__ _

__Locate 3 passages of the story that your group should reread, discuss, and think about.

1. Passages should be important things for everyone to notice, remember, or think about.

2. Choose a variety of passages, not all the same type--here are suggestions: · Surprising/startling · Confusing (something you wonder if other people "got") · Descriptive writing: figurative language, strong verbs, etc. (identify literary devices) · Important (maybe a clue? foreshadowing?) · Controversial event (elicits different opinions from group members) During Your Group Meeting, Do the Following: 1. Make sure everyone opens to the right page and help them find where the passage begins. 2. Either read it aloud yourself, have everyone read it silently, or ask someone to read it. 3. Tell your reasons for selecting each passage; ask for comments. Do they agree with your choices?__
