And what you will see includes a suggested teacher PACE timetable for the rest of the quarter. Included are stages and assessments of the book work as well as the essay work.
For the rest of class, folks could opt into two activities or work independently.
In the reading activity, we read an excerpt from House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisernos.
We practiced using the GIST literacy strategy to document our understanding.
You can find the GIST form in your Google Drive PACE OUT folder.
We also did some work with our essay writing and used a "Why" chart exercise. We established our essential questions and then started asking the question "Why?" to explore possibilities for our arguments.
