August 22, 2013: What's Happening in English 10?

Focus: What strategies do you currently use as a reader?  What are your strengths and weaknesses as a reader?

1. Warm-up: Quickly recapping independent reading and explaining tonight's homework

• Your book should be one that you haven't yet read.
• Your book should be at your reading level (remember the "five finger" rule).
• You should really, really like your book; take your time picking it out.
• You need both your book and your signed permission form on Friday, August 30.

2. Taking the Critical Reading Boot Camp pre-test!

Please open the pre-test link above, click on File, then Make a copy.

Rename the test so that your first and last name come right before the original title.
