⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This saved my life at the end of this school year. I absolutely loved using all the components of this resource with my third-graders. We took a week and did "fishbowl" practice for each part of the discussion guide, modeling what discussions should/should not look like. The following week they did their book clubs, feeling far more confident than they would have if we'd not taken that practice round. They did fantastic with it!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My students loved using this resource for their work! They were engaged in the resource and didn’t have trouble getting going. Minimum preparation time for this resource, it was simple for me to use! I adapted it per my students grade level as needed as well. I picked and used what was most appropriate for them!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ AMAZING! These work for books of all ages and are perfect for differentiated rotations. I started out using these with my higher-level students and they caught on so quickly and looked forward to book clubs every day.
