Pick up your folder, make sure you have reading materials, and be seated.
Activity 1. Individual Reading Time and Fill in Your Reading Log
On most class days we will have some quiet individual reading time at the beginning of class. Bring a book to read or borrow something from the teacher's shelves.
Don't forget to fill out your reading log every time. It counts on your grade!
If you're absent, or don't fill out your log, pick up a pink make-up sheet and do the homework.
Leave your reading log and fluency graph in your folder.
Activity 2. Partner Fluency Practice and fill out your fluency graph
Use the passage for today: #618 "Balance of Power"
Fill out the date, passage number, and your words per minute.
Activity 3. Continue Study Reading
for the Lewis and Clark Expedition
2. Answer the questions. You may work with your partner, but everyone needs to hand in their own quiz.
3. If you have extra time, finish reading and studying the rest of the packet.
If you missed today, or were not on task: Ask the teacher for the quiz.
Activity 4. Study-Viewing -- "Reading" a video to learn
National Geographic: Lewis and Clark: Great Journey West 41 Minutes LONG
This is available on Netflix.
A3 to 19:13
A4 to 19:26

Prepare to focus: Do a SELF check.
Come with Questions.
What would that have looked like?
What was it like for them? How did they feel about the journey?
Other questions based on what you've learned so far or on things
you haven't learned so far.
Make Connections as you view --
with what you've already learned
with your own life and feelings
Make Corrections in your thinking.
I was thinking it would have been this way, but it was actually. . .
JOT down a FEW notes.
Use abbreviations, just a few words, date, etc.
Mostly absorb what you seeing and hearing.
Use your own mind-speed to memorize.
Repeat dates, places, other facts to yourself a couple of times.
