Rules to Remember:
Student will be able to analyze specific quotations from a high-level literary work and
discuss how the working parts contribute to the overall meaning and magnitude of the
story as a whole.
Students will look and follow along with the textbook reading rules explained to them on
the page above. This will familiarize them with the process that we are trying to build
routine with during our textbook reading in American Studies.
Students are actively reading with a pencil in hand. They are following instructions while
also annotating and making comments and notes in the margins. Students will use the
Specific Reading Guide as a bookmark while reading each specific page and Unit of the
textbook.
First, they will be asked to prepare a PowerNotes report (a 4, 3, 2, 1). What PowerNotes
is a hierarchy of important point from the brief unit (4—most important and vital
information that is essential, 3—very important and still non-negotiable, 2—interesting
detail or anecdote stemming from the material, and 1—perhaps your favorite or most
interesting anecdote from the society or culture of time period.
Next, students will be asked to produce a Tweet-25, a 25-word summary of the unit
using their summarizing skills and determining what is the most important information
from the text. Student must provide at least 1 hashtag or theme from the text (i.e.
#AntiWarIsNoBore)
