Possibilities Checklist
Small Sharing Groups--How They Work; Why We Use Them; What I Expect
We are going to get
into small sharing groups, and here’s why:
1.
It’s sometimes daunting to
read your work in front of the whole class.
But reading to three or four other people can be a lot easier, more
relaxed.
2.
Hearing your work out loud
can change the way you view it—you hear things you aren’t aware of when you’re
simply reading over it in your head.
3.
Your classmates have written
some powerful pieces, some funny pieces, some thoughtful pieces. I think it’s important that they have an
audience (more than just me) for these pieces.
What to do in your small sharing group:
1) Start with someone, anyone.
a. That writer tells the group WHAT he/she is
reading, and WHY he/she has chosen to read it.
b. Then the writer reads!
c. Group members listen carefully.
d. When the author finishes, applaud, and then
have each person in the group make one positive, specific comment about the
work.
e. Give everyone time to fill out the
comment sheets before going on to the next story.
2) Now the next person in the circle share a
piece, and so on, until everyone has shared.
3) Return to the room by _________.
Questions before you get into your groups:
1.
Have you reminded yourself
to treat everyone with the utmost courtesy and respect?
2.
Do you have your folder and
your comment sheets?
3.
Have you turned off your
phone and put it on its name card on the heater?
