Lesson of the Week - September 26 - 30, 2011

This week we will be reading the story Finding the Titanic. This story can be found on pages 82-101 in the reading textbook. The strategy focus throughout the story is monitory/carify. As the students read the story they should monitor their understanding by re-reading and carification of events and ideas. The comprehension skill of the week is text organization. We will focus on the use of outlines to help organize facts and events from the story to increase student understanding of the story structure.
