Extension Activites for Literature Circles

 Right now I am working on planning effective ways for my students to demonstrate what they have learned from their book.  Our main focus on our last literature cicle was Story Elements. I plan to suggest a variety of projects to accommodate all learning styles in my classroom.

Here are the projects that I plan to have my students choose from.

1. Flip Book- This flip book has 8 flaps, setting, main idea, main character, title and author, vocabulary word, favorite part, problem and solution.

2. Cereal Box book report- front of box- title and author, back- setting, side- problem and solution, side- main idea or theme

Any other ideas???

I would love to hear about anything else that has worked for other teachers for projects to conclude literature circles.

  1. I have seen a story element cube before that students write and color first and than glue it into a cube. I have also seen them string several story element cubes together across the room.
