The Close Reading of Night (Chap 1-3) work is the focus of class this week.
Students self divide into expert groups on a quote. In these groups they discuss there initial analysis; find common understandings and insights; and they discuss alternative interpretations. After a thorough examination of the quote in the expert group, the experts create a mini-lesson / presentation for the class to help everyone understand the meaning / significance (or multiple meanings / significance) of each passage.
This activity is repeated for three sections of questions.
After each round of presentations, the class debriefs the presentations? How was the presentation effective in helping students read the text closely? Was the presentation clear?
