Wiki Space for Literature Circles

Hello,


Ms. Tezuka and I decided to create a new space for your Literature Circle activities and responses.  I've been checking on our blog and on our facebook account for responses, however, there are several people who have not responded thus far.  This new space and format should be beneficial for your groups.  Please feel free to make suggestions  and we'll work through the formatting process together.  Good luck! And thank you to everyone who has posted.  I've enjoyed reading your posts.

Here's a link to the wiki:

You will need to go to your book page, click on discussion and start
posting under the role that you've been assigned or agreed upon  in your group.
