We took the reading test from ACT 4MC. This was completed in class. Students were able to work on their own to complete and grade the test. Class was short due to an assembly, so that was all we had time for.
Homework:
- Students will read 20 new pages from their informational text. After reading, they will write a one page summary (double space--don't use up a lot of space for your name, period, etc...I want a full page!) of the main ideas. This will help you in your research, but also prep you for extracting the main idea in preparation for your ACT next week.
- Students will also write one paragraph reflecting on how this reading material helped answer your research focus question--or if you read something that helped you formulate a new question to focus on.
- Students will turn in this assignment WITH their previous summary/paragraph that I already graded, checked off, scored, and commented on. I need to see all your work to ensure that you are not just spitting out the same information (or heaven forbid, using the same assignment!) If you don't turn in the previous assignment with the new assignment you will be docked points!
