This is one of the assignments that will be graded for their book club assessments.wilrebeccanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147741456737476069.post-13358005744777597192017-08-14T15:46:47.514-04:002017-08-14T15:46:47.514-04:00Thanks, Elyse.

Otherwise, I do a lot of wandering around as the kids work in groups or independently in order to assess who's participating/working and who isn't. A lot of information can come from the conferences I do too.Room 213https://www.blogger.com/profile/04994184250569494671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147741456737476069.post-80648802778403913122017-08-12T12:31:36.050-04:002017-08-12T12:31:36.050-04:00I love these tips!

I teach 7th grade, they need organization help.Yellow flip flopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01894915960641685519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8147741456737476069.post-11325472371942590252017-05-11T05:43:03.444-04:002017-05-11T05:43:03.444-04:00You're welcome!

I don't want to be too heavy-handed with assignments and want to provide a structure for students to work through our whole class novels by getting them to discuss their own ideas about the story.
