Literature Circle / Reciprocal Reading Task Cards

Reciprocal teaching, also known as Literature Circles, is a reading strategy designed to enhance students’ reading comprehension skills.

This approach equips students with four key reading strategies - Questioning, Clarifying, Summarising, and Predicting - which are utilised actively and intentionally to aid in comprehension.

I have created task cards tailored for small groups of up to 6 students. In this method, each student is assigned a specific role and they rotate taking on the role of the teacher to facilitate discussions about the text.
