What's a literature circle? 
In a literature circle, students are able to take ownership in their learning as they rotate between different literary roles each week. The different roles will cover important material in the reading in a fresh, engaging, and thorough way. On class day, students arrive having read the section and completed their role for that week. During class, students will take turns sharing their role's work and discussing the reading in-depth. The following week, students will rotate down one role so that each student will have the opportunity to fill each role by the end of class.

In this class, we will read sections of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, then get together in class to talk about the reading section. Students will be encouraged to share what they loved, what they hated, what confused them, and more. I will also facilitate the discussion to help students dig into the deeper truths hiding in each chapter. 

After finishing the book and having our last discussion, the students will put together a creative project from a Literary Choice Board handout, and presentations will take place in the final class. 

Literature Circle Roles:
1. Summary Superintendent
2. Discussion Director
3. Literary Leader
4. Word Wizard or Connection Captain (student's choice)
5.  Artistic Agent


BEFORE THE FIRST CLASS:
Before our first class, please watch the video attached to your welcome message that goes over each of the literary roles in detail and discusses how the role rotation works throughout the course. 
Roles for our first reading section will be randomly assigned to start us out, and the homework will be to read Chs. 1-2 of The Great Gatsby and complete their literature circle role for the week. Look for your role assignment from your teacher 24-48 hours after enrollment, and once all roles are assigned, the teacher will share an easy-to-read chart in the classroom to keep roles straight. Be ready to share with the group in our first class!

Class #1: 
Have Chs. 1-2 read and be ready for discussion with your weekly role work completed. After each literature circle member has had a chance to share their work for the week, we will assign Chs. 3-4 of The Great Gatsby and each student will move down one role. If they are at role number 6, they will go back to the top of the list.

Class #2: 
Have Chs. 3-4 read and be ready for discussion with your weekly role work completed.  After each literature circle member has had a chance to share their work for the week, we will assign Chs. 5-6 of The Great Gatsby and each student will move down one role. If they are at role number 6, they will go back to the top of the list.

Class #3: 
Have Chs. 5-6 read and be ready for discussion with your weekly role work completed. After each literature circle member has had a chance to share their work for the week, we will assign Ch. 7 of The Great Gatsby and each student will move down one role. If they are at role number 6, they will go back to the top of the list.

Class #4: 
Have Ch. 7 read and be ready for discussion with your weekly role work completed. After each literature circle member has had a chance to share their work for the week, we will assign Chs. 8-9 of The Great Gatsby and each student will move down one role. If they are at role number 6, they will go back to the top of the list.

Class #5: 
Have Chs. 8-9 read and be ready for discussion with your weekly role work completed. After each literature circle member has had a chance to share their work for the week, we will assign the Literary Choice Board project for students to present at the next class meeting.

Class #6: 
Have your Literary Choice Board project completed and be prepared to present to the class. 

*For smaller classes, I will allow the students to decide if they would like to take on more than one role each week or have Mrs. Zerr cover the missing roles for that week.
學習目標
Students will increase their reading comprehension skills, their knowledge of vocabulary and literary devices, and hone their discussion skills. They will focus on finding text-connections, improving their summarizing skills, and creating artistic representations of literature.

其他詳情

父母的引導和規範
I strongly recommend all parents review the Common Sense Media page for The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald at https://www.commonsensemedia.org/book-reviews/the-great-gatsby. At New Horizons Academy, we understand how difficult setting your family's schedule can be, juggling everyone's activities and classes. To honor that time commitment, we are proud to be able to offer another of our organization's Outschool-approved and trained teachers (Mrs. Becky, Teacher Carissa, Ms. Monica, or Teacher Donna) in the rare occurrence of teacher illnesses or urgent personal events. This will allow you to keep your schedule in-tact as much as possible and keep the learning going! --- External Resource: Lumio by SMART Lumio by SMART is an interactive lesson resource similar to Nearpod that engages learners through polls, games, sharing, as well as workspaces for individuals, groups, and the whole class! It’s a great way to elevate the learning experience. To join class, students will: 1. Go to hellosmart.com. 2. Students can connect to class by signing in with their Google or Microsoft accounts, or they can join as GUESTS with a lesson code and simply type in their names/nicknames. 3. If students would like to access the lesson outside of class time, they can either access the student-paced lesson link by signing in with a Google or Microsoft account, or accessing the PDF resources in the Outschool classroom.
供應清單
Students will each need a copy of the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. If an art project is chosen for the final class, students will need to supply the art materials of their choosing. Art supplies may also be required for the Artistic Agent role, depending on what type of project the student chooses to complete.

Digital handouts will be provided through a forced-copy Google Docs link each week. If you do not have access to a Google account and would like me to send you a non-fillable PDF instead, please send me a message and I would be happy to provide that.

Teaching--especially in English, writing, and language arts--is a true passion of mine. I graduated Cum Laude from Kansas State University in 2010 with a Secondary Education degree in English and Journalism, and then went on to teach in the public schools before setting off on my own as an online teacher and tutor.

My philosophy of education is to make it as fun, personalized, and as interactive as possible for the kids. I always try to even out my direct instruction/lecture time with plenty of opportunities for students to practice these new skills, take polls, play review games, and collaborate with peers.

I am happily married to my husband Brad, and we have two beautiful daughters, Sophia and Elise. We currently reside in Kansas in a small town, and we love the small town life.

Oh, and Zerr is pronounced "Zarr," so it rhymes with "car." 😉

Hi there! I'm Monica and I teach reading, vocabulary, and writing classes. I recently finished graduate school in linguistics. 

I grew up speaking English, Spanish, and Swiss German at home, so I've been surrounded by several languages from a young age. Whether I am studying the history of a word, or what language can tell us about its speakers, I am endlessly curious about language. I have experience teaching linguistics courses at the university level, as well as teaching writing, reading, and English as a second language online. I'm so excited to share my passion for language and to learn with and from my students!

My teaching philosophy is that every student comes into the classroom with knowledge. It's my job, as a teacher, to leverage what they already know to help them achieve their goals.
Outside of the classroom, you can find me at the beach, or out in nature. I love to spend my free time reading, writing, and with my friends and family. Oh, and playing with my cat, Biscuit!
I'm looking forward to seeing you in class! 😊

My personal teaching philosophy is "We are Lifelong Learners!" I want to foster a love of learning in my classroom through engaging, fun, and creative lessons.  I hope to see you in my classroom very soon! ✨
