Provide groups of 4–6 students with a very large sheet of paper. Have them divide it into boxes or a circle divided into wedges; there should be one section per group member. At the top of each section, they write a heading (see ideas, below). They sit around the paper, with a section in front of each person, and write an entry in that section, below the heading. When everyone is finished, they rotate the paper, read one another’s entries, and write an entry for the new category. Time should be given at each rotation for them to skim the novel for ideas. Ideas for headings are: Saddest Moment, Most Inspiring Moment, Three Adjectives Describing Shauzia, Best Sentence in the Novel, New Word I Learned, What I Want to Learn More About. Afterward, have students compare and share their ideas and reasoning.
