Before reading, the class receives the visualizing problems and fixes worksheet. Everyone reviews, what students have been doing incorrectly with visualizing and how to fix it. Also class reviews many ways to use extra for the visualizing strategy. Refer to this worksheet to help you be more descriptive and use extra in a purposeful way. Also make sure you are using the correct sense, for example if you said " I see them talking in an angry way" you aren't using the right sense. If they are mostly describing the way they sound, that would be I hear, if they are mostly talking about their anger, that would be I feel.
Students given 25 minutes to read to finish an older reading entry, past due, or work on the new one.
