Hello, hello!

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to share with you a resource that I enjoy using in class and that has proven to be very beneficial in developing my students' reading skills: the implementation of Reading Circles with defined roles.

It's not just a pedagogical approach but a collaborative adventure that has opened unexpected doors in the world of reading. By assigning specific roles to students during our reading sessions, there is increased engagement and a deeper understanding of the texts.

The magic of this methodology lies in how each student takes on a unique role. From the "Discussion Director" to the "Quote Master," everyone brings an invaluable perspective. And the best part? Collaboration among them becomes more natural. They share ideas, analyze books together, and develop a deeper love for reading.

It's not just about improving reading skills; when students take on specific roles, they feel accountable not only for their own learning but also for the group's success. Each one has the opportunity to contribute their unique voice to the discussion, discovering the richness that shared reading can offer. Let's explore the world of reading together and create an environment where every student feels inspired and valued!

Write to me if you have any questions about how I implemented this resource with my students or how you can adapt it for your classroom.

Sending you a big hug,

Hello, hello!

I love activities that foster connection, and this is one of my favorites! With these 20 'Who is most likely to...' questions, you can engage your students in a fun and meaningful way. Not only does it allow them to discover how others perceive them, but it also promotes an atmosphere of camaraderie and laughter.

I have used it with the teachers, with the students talking about the teachers, and with my classroom of students talking about each other, and they have all been very fun and interesting. You can go from pointing at names of everyone on the floor or a table, to using a small whiteboard and a whiteboard marker so that the students can point to who they think is most likely to...

Have fun!
