Targets for Today:
I can think about my own thinking.
I have reading stamina. I can read fluently at an appropriate pace. I can use strategies to prepare to read -- BEFORE READING. |
Today’s Agenda for Thursday, April 18, 2019:
1. Mini-Lesson -- Getting Ready to Read using BICUM Strategies
Be in Control: Use Metacognition
Receive and begin filling out your BICUM Brochure. Link in Nearpod: https://share.nearpod.com/vsph/gLWjfIOqMu
2. Individual Reading Time
Fill out your reading log.
3. First Chapter -- Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld
A3 listened. A4 got a book talk (audio wasn't working).
4. Partner Fluency -- Turn Off the Faucet Passage 102?
Fill out a column on your graph for each time you read.
Each class did only one read-through for each student.
Neither Group did the Mnemonic-a-Day. 5. A mnemonic a day keeps the mind in play. A3 needs Part 1 -- A4 practice with appointment partners The Bill of Rights 6-10 -- Amendments to the Constitution of the United States 6. Six fingers -- Hold out five, point at your wrist with the sixth, as if you are wearing a watch. -- the right to a speedy trial 7. Hold up seven fingers and think of lucky seven! What luck! You get a trial by jury instead of having just a judge decide. Imagine seven men in suits. You have the right to a trial by jury in when you are suing or being sued. 8. Use your thumb and three fingers to form a "handcuff" around your opposite wrist -- with the five fingers on that hand out flat. Now, picture a pair of handcuffs forming a letter eight. The eighth amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishment and excessive bail -- like eight million dollars!
9. Hold up nine fingers. Pat your own chest. The German "Nein" means "No!" Don't take away my rights. The government can't talk away individual rights just because they aren't listed in the constitution. 10. Hold up ten fingers. Stop! Just Stop. "Stop" and "states" both begin with "ST." The government can't take away a state's rights. |
