I am in the building today, but not in class.

Begin today with Silent Sustained Reading (SSR) for 15mins. I hope some one will volunteer to time the reading. 

Record the number of pages read on your independent reading form.

Sign up for Hypothes.is.

Join the WHS ENGLISH HYPOTHES.IS GROUP

Read this guide based on the book Learn Better and annotate via Hypothes.is:

Guide for Students

  • Find ideas that Boser is putting forward that confirm what you already know about learning. Leave a comment and an example for each.
  • Ask 3 questions of the document. They could be things you don’t understand, something you wonder, and something you want to be clarified.
  • Locate at least 3 unfamiliar words. In your annotation/comment include the definition and an example of how you might use the word in a sentence.

Finally, add to your “Story of Learning” for this week.
