Another small discussion about the novel will be in a few days. The students will be discussing how certain words are used in chapter 5. How should the students prepare for the group discussion?

In order for small group discussions to be effective, there are certain things students need to do to prepare for them. One way a student can prepare is by reading about the discussion topic before coming to class. They can also take notes on the topic. Then they can refer to the notes if they forget something about the topic.
