These literature circle response forms include forms and job roles directly related to literature concepts and standards. That makes these response forms perfect to use alongside any individual reading assignment as well.
Here’s what you’ll get:
-
Weekly grading rubric/page for students to grade each other
-
Bookmarks or students to write their weekly reading and jobs
-
Handout with a breakdown of each job
-
Quarter-page hand-out for students and teachers to create literature circle groups based on student book club choices.
Your students will love getting into literature circles and book club groups because they will have a structure and framework each week. They’ll easily meet with their group members and be able to know what work should have been done as well as many talking points for discussion.
All of these literature circle response forms are designed to get students to think beyond the text and beyond basic comprehension. Even more so, all forms are printable and digital to meet the needs of all different classrooms.
Prep is quick and easy… Decide if you’ll use the digital or printable version. Just print the student pages or assign them in your digital classroom. Have students breakdown their weekly reading on their bookmarks, explain how they’ll select their jobs each week, and send them off to do their real-deal middle school ELA book clubs.

TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Plans and Pivots says, “This was very helpful with implementing our book club expectations and allowing for autonomy within the groups. It really cut through time that has been spent in previous years allowing students to try and determine these things without enough context, as well as outlining the individual responsibilities and expectations, thank you!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jessica J. says, “The bookmarks are a good idea for students to plot out their reading schedule and keep it in a handy place. We found it helpful to have the variety of roles, recording sheets, and group member assessment sheet (helps keep them honest).”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tara C. says, “Engaging, user friendly and very well done. Thank you for creating such wonderful resources. By far one of my most successful Lit Circles, and I can’t wait to use it again. I can always count on your resources to fulfill the need in which it was purchased for.”
