Line Lighter

Line Lighter: Your task is to find three to five lines or short passages that you think reflect good writing or that are key or important to the story.. You will copy these passages or lines and explain why you believe the are examples of good writing or why you think they are important to the story. You will also need to bring a thinking question to the group, a question that prompts the others to think beyond the facts of the passage. It is also your job to look for places where you disagree with others in your group.
