Add to R4-Cnotes-How to complete reading entry/Ra Ta Ta
Problems with R5 and R6, which students need to stop doing
-Its obvious some of you haven't read by the summaries you're giving. For example: Owen Meany almost died because he can't swim. (This summary reflects the student didn't read.)
-Questions that are repetitive of quote, pointless, they already know the answer or should know, reflect they didn't read. For example: Who is Owen Meany? What is Episcopalian? What is Congregational? What is Catholic? Why can't Owen swim?
-Not using Extra at all, or not enough
-Not putting pg to pg at bottom of entries-there is no way for me to know you really read those 10 pages
-You are starting summaries how I said not to: In these 10 pages I read..Now I want to say what happened in this section...
-Your summaries are too wordy and don't give the main idea. Instead you are listing everything or giving only a summary of the pages you read, not all 10 pages. For Example: Owen Meany went to church. He tells about his childhood, his grandmother is mean, his mom is pretty, he plays tricks on Owen, he plays baseball and is going to a private school.
10 minutes given for silent reading-Students allowed to recycle their R5-R6 and fix some of these mistakes above. Students who never turned in the entries are encouraged to work on them and submit.
