Genre #4: Anchor Chart

Summary:
     I created an anchor chart for book club "jobs" that could actually be used in a classroom that is doing a book club. I tried to include ideas for self-monitering skills that are needed to be a great book club member and reader in general. I included basic steps that students should take to prepare for a book club as well as attributes that should be used during actual discussions. I tried to list the steps from most obvious to least obvious. On the bottom of the chart I added ideas for students to use when they get stuck during a book club and don't know what to talk about.
     It's very helpful for students to have something to go off of when they are taking part in group discussions since the teacher cannot be right next to them at all times. Charts like this one can be very helpful during the first couple book clubs to keep students on task and remind them of what they should be doing.
I tried to choose genre pieces that could be useful to me as a teacher and I think this one could be one that I can actually use in my future teaching.
