What we did in class on Friday:

 

In class we mostly did individual work. Most of the class was finishing up their note taking from the Pathways text (p. 9-20 outline form notes, p.21-30 web form notes and p.31 Cornell form notes).  Some people still had to finish their book passes which involved reading 3 pages of a book and then rating it on its’ readability.  We also had to choose our favorite book.   Mrs. Lees also signed out our novels to us.   We will be reading the books in different novel study groups. I’m in the Blood Red Horse book group. 

 

Why we did it:

 

We did the note taking because the teacher wanted us to improve on our technique of note taking by using outline, web and Cornell note form. So we could be better at taking notes in class instead of copying her notes. We did the novel study I think because the teacher wanted to check our reading and writing ability better.
