3- Each student checked out a copy of the book "Speak"
4- Reviewed the Note Card assignment. Each student was assigned one of the four types of silence. As they read the homework, they must look for one example of their type of silence.

Notice that the note card must include your name, type of silence, and page numbers for assigned reading along the top.

Then you must include the direct quote from the book with the page number.

Then you must explain why that quote is an example of your type of silence.





5- Started reading pages 3-22. Mrs. Robinson went over the reading questions.
