Collaborative Literature Circles.

In Humanities we have started Collaborate Literature Circle. We have free choice Literature Circle, which means: the teacher allows us to choose our book, my book is: THE TRUE CONFESSIONS OF CHARLOTTE DOYLE written by Avi. My partners are Radhika and Hime. 


1.The benefits of working with a classmate.


 Working with a classmate benefits us to correct each others assignment's. It allows us to understand what people think and criticize on their work before the due date. I also believe that, working with a partner is more enjoyable for you have more to experience and more to think about (correcting).   


2. Challenges / obstacles which you overcame (tried to overcome).


One of the hardest obstacles I had to conquer was the fact that I was blocked from my email, which means I couldn't communicate with my group. We came up with a solution, although not a good plan I followed the idea and found that it worked. 


3. New understandings that you gained about the novel.



I gained the  understanding of Charlotte, and how she can really stand up for herself, in a dark situation. Mostly in my group we only chose passages which showed how Charlotte can stand up for herself. "While I thought that I was learning how to live, I have been learning how to die." This quote explains Charlotte's dark  and difficult experiences and self torment when she had to learn how to live with the poorer society coming from the wealthy life

The Lit. Circle Blog.

The group discussions that we have in Lit. Circles helped my understanding of the book by explaining other people's perspective about some passages. Sometimes we would not understand a certain passage of the book, this made us brainstorm together in a group. During the lit circles we would also discuss our opinions and from that we understand the book with different point of views. Lit. Circles also gives you an opportunity to express your favorite passage and why you chose it. 

Some connections that my group make is that we discuss similar questions on the same questions. Our group would always come to a chapter or passage when we face draconian questions and always come up with a plenipotentiary answer. Sometimes we would also comment on each other Lit. Circles and would have the same comment/criticism as each other.

I believe that there are many predictions to what may happen in the book THE TRUE CONFESSIONS OF CHARLOTTE DOYLE . First I predict that soon Charlotte may gain more friends on the ship for she has started to already make acquaintance with other crew members on the ship. Second I predict that Mr. Jaggery is evil for he has tortured and plunged into hatred of the crew.
