What kind of club member will you be?

Wordsmith Your job is to locate a few special sections of the text that you think your group would like to read aloud. You decide which passages or paragraphs are worth hearing, and then jot plans for how they should be shared. You can read the passages aloud yourself, or ask someone else to read them, then discuss them as a group.

Travel Tracker Your job is to carefully track where the action is happening in today’s reading. Tell the group where the characters have moved to and from and describe each setting in detail either in words or in map form. Be sure to give the page locations where the scene is described.

Summarizer Your job is to prepare a brief summary of today's reading. Your group discussion will start with your 1-2 minute statement that covers the key points, main highlights, general idea and essence of today's reading assignment.

Investigator Your job is to dig up some background information on the book and any topic related to it. This is NOT a formal research project. find information that interests you and helps the group to better understand the characters, setting and plot of the book.

Connector Your job is to connect the contents of the reading selection to current or past real world events and experiences. You will also connect the reading to other forms of literature, music, art and/or media.

Discussion Director Your job is to develop a list of questions that your group might want to discuss about this part of the book and direct the discussion by asking each member for their input based on their current role. Don't worry about the small details; your task is to help people talk over the "big ideas" in the reading and share their reactions. Usually the best discussion questions come from your own thoughts, feelings and concerns as you read.

Illustrator Your job is to draw some kind of picture related to the reading. It can be a sketch, cartoon, diagram, flow chart or stick-figure scene. You can draw a picture of something that's discussed specifically in your book, or something that the reading reminded you of, or a picture that conveys any idea or feeling you got from the reading. Any kind of drawing or graphic is okay; may label with words if that helps.
