 We continued reading in our literacy group while filling out a sheet of the main topics the group discussed between every 2 pages. The lesson that we learned within our groups was to focus on our opinions of the text rather than restating it while discussing what emotions or thoughts we had about it. This knowledge could be used when trying to describe a text to someone without revealing details that occur in the text. What I struggled with was wording the emotions I felt towards the text. I came in for half a day so it felt more relaxed then usual.

Class was long since we had a block schedule.
