Group Meetings

Group Meetings
Book Club Blogs Grade 7 ELA
Note: A group meeting refers to a reading section. 1 group meeting may take several classes but must still be labeled “Group meeting 1”
____________________________________________________________________
For each reading section you will be assigned a device for group meetings. The devices and what questions you should answer for each are listed below.

a) During each group meeting you will spend the first 10-15 minutes individually taking notes and answering the questions for your device in relation to your book.

b) You are encouraged to include relevant quotes and references from your book.

c) Once you are done taking notes and answering questions return to your group and go over your answers. Decide on who will be secretary and meeting leader. Group Positions (secretary and meeting leader) and device assignments (setting, plot, etc) need to change every reading section as opposed to every class.


Secretary - A single person will act as the secretary; they will be responsible for taking notes and making a computer copy of answers explored during that meeting. Finally, the secretary is responsible to post the notes for that meeting on the book blog.

Meeting Leader – meeting leader will make sure that all the devices are appropriately explored. In addition, they must make certain that the group is staying on topic.
