The appropriate reading

strategy for today

Our focus today to allow us to conduct

deeper reading is to do the following: Use your reading log cornell notes to

help navigate through the reading

W

e will read all four pages in class Create a section in your notes for new

vocabulary. These are words that are

common on the SATs.

Purpose as we read

As we read I will ask you a number of questions regarding argument,

inference, and purpose. As we

approach each, think about why this is

effective towards persuading or causinga reader to think (rhetorical devices).

 Appropriate strategy for 

today

How will I take cornell notes?

As we read you may not mark the text; however 

you may use post-it notes.

Today we are going to use post-it notes to

identify the author¶s claims.

You may make the choice to simply transfer 

these over to cornell notes. Remember a claim is an arguable statement or 

assertion made by the author (data, facts, or 

other backing should support an authors

assertion)

Summarizing the text

You will do this in your cornell notes

What is the author doing? Use a verb like

introducing, defining, asserting, illustrating, or someother verb that accurately describes what the author 

is doing.

Example: Introducing the idea that...

Reviewing research....

Challenging the view that....

Interpreting data...

Summary/reflection/inquiry

question

I am going to try my best to give you time to reflect.

Remember a summary is directly correlated to your NOTES.

Your reflection is directly correlated to our goals for 

the day (aka objectives). Please create an inquiry question to open next

class. This should be focused on something we

learned or was introduced today.
