Connections Across Texts

All week we work in our Book Club reading groups.
We read and discuss books.
We answer a BIG question.
This week's big question is:  Why do we need maps?

All of our Book Club books answer this question in a different way.

On the LAST day of Book Clubs each week, 
we mix up the groups.

Each group has members with different book titles on this day.

The students have to discuss what all of their books have in common.






The students have to:
1.  Summarize their book for the group.
2.  Discuss how their book answers our big question.
3.  Listen while their friends summarize their books.
4.  Write some notes on how the other books answer the big question.

BIG LEARNING!!!
