Thursday, May 3: Track Your Thinking

Goals: Read and track your thinking. Write at least a paragraph in response to what we read. Practice reading aloud with feeling.

Announcements:

• Renewed books?
• Missing Work: #022 Visible Poem, 1 argument
• Visible Poem Published!

 

1) #055 Starter

Open the #055 Starter in Google Classroom. When you finish, MARK AS DONE.

2) Read from page 15 (~20 – 30 minutes)

 

3) Voice Actors Wanted

Choose a passage from what we read today. Find a section of the book with dialogue and interior monologue or description. Read with feeling several times—to yourself and to a partner. Take turns reading with your partner until both of you can read without mistakes.

Your goal is to increase your fluency by—

• Reading at an appropriate pace and volume.
• Pronouncing words correctly.
• Pausing at punctuation.
• Modulating, or changing, your voice to show emotion or to emphasize specific parts.
