In other words, what needs to be normal – an everyday habit – for groups/pairs to work effectively? Write these down on your half sheet of paper. As a group, discuss and write down what you believe to be the top 5 norms we need for groups to work effectively. Compile a list you all agree with – write these down on the back of one of your sheets. Be clear because I am collecting these.

Books! What do you notice about how this novel is written? How is it like other novels you have read? How is it different?
