How to use these Literature Circle Roles:

Foster student inquiry and encourage peer-to-peer discussion and evaluation using the handouts provided.

This resource includes a handout with an overview of the different roles and responsibilities that students will assume during their literature circle meetings. These roles are suitable for middle school and high school students and offer opportunities for practicing diverse and practical reading strategies.

Students can distribute roles, stay organized, and remain on track with their scheduled literature circle meetings using the Task Chart graphic organizer provided with this resource.

Additionally, the individual scaffolding worksheets for each literature circle role will provide students with guidance while they prepare for each meeting.

To facilitate peer evaluation and promote accountability, a peer evaluation form has also been provided. Students can provide feedback based on their classmates' participation; this feedback can be used to make adjustments to individual grades if need be.

A participation rubric for teacher use has also been provided.  The ready-to-print version of this rubric uses grade percentages to distinguish between each grade level.  An editable version of this rubric has been provided in order to align these grade levels to your curriculum.  To implement the participation rubric, you can sit in on meetings at random and evaluate students.
