The students were given one hour of free choice time, where they were free to choose any activity and change whenever they wanted. Five students sat on the classroom couch to read. Three students chose to share a book together (the early version of a “book club”) and two students chose to read independently.
At the end of the clip one of the independent readers engages with one of the group of three to point out something in her book.
