When students work in groups to analyze a text in the target language, it deepens their understanding.
Literature circles are commonly incorporated in English language arts classes but also can be meaningful in the world language setting, especially with the newfound prevalence of language-learner-friendly readers. Reading in the target language and participating in a series of engaging tasks within a literature circle helps bring the text to life. It also allows every student to contribute and become actively involved in the experience.
