Bell Work: Introductions!
Put your name card on your desk and introduce yourself with your Russian name! I am Liza Vilgelovna!

Lit Circles
With your group, use your notes to have a 7 minute Socratic discussion (without the outside circle). Use a phone or video camera to record your group. When you finish, watch the video. Discuss with your group the positive and negative aspects of your performance. Did you refer to the text? Did you build off each others' ideas? Were there long awkward silent periods? Was everyone well prepared? Complete the grading rubric. Turn this in, along with your prep notes handout.

Chunks!
With your small group, select 1 chunk to share with the class!
