Literature
Circle Strategies
for High School
Classrooms
Harvey Daniels
inspired a multitude of teachers in the early 90s with his literature circle
strategies. Click here to see all of Daniels' available books.
Over the last
11 years, I have experimented with literature circles in my middle school and
high school English classes and adapted strategies as I learned more about my
students, about teaching, and about literature circles. From 1999-2001, I
presented several regional and national workshops on literature circles. Here
is a link to the L-O-N-G handout from that workshop. It is filled with
writing ideas to use as extensions for literature circles.
Since 2002, I
have been very successfully using Jim Burke's adaptations of the literature
circle role sheets found in his book THE ENGLISH TEACHER'S COMPANION
. Burke also has an excellent and
comprehensive web site with the actual lit circle role sheets available
online. Click here
