Tuesday 05/22 Reading - Discuss Setting

Purpose: I can share and discuss the setting of my story to help myself and others understand how the time, place, and environment impact the plot.

1. Book Club: Have your "Setting" Response ready to share @ 10:30
2. Thinking and Writing About Your Reading: "Determine Importance by Summarizing" Response is due TOMORROW:
• You should summarize at least two selections of your reading assignment.
• First, identify the text as specifically as you can.
• Then, state the verb that describes what the author does with their writing.
• Next, identify the topic of the text selection--what the text is mostly about.
• Last, record at least three big ideas that support the topic of the selection.
• Finally, use your outline to write a summary paragraph.
