6. Teacher will model this think-aloud strategy by reading the first half of
paragraph 1 and then ask a question aloud that comes to mind. Teacher will
then ask a student to read the second half of paragraph1 and the student will
ask a question aloud that comes to mind. ****If youre not asking questions as
you read, youre not really reading.
7. Teacher will instruct students to continue reading aloud with their table
partner, taking turns asking/writing questions (p1 reads aloud while p2
questions, then switch). Teacher will walk around each table to ensure
students are staying on task and to listen to various questions from the text.
8. Class will come back together and have a few partners share out their
questions.

X: Self-Assessment: For the most part, class went the way I expected. My 5th & 6th
period classes (Special Ed) are a bit concerning due to behavior; therefore, I always
anticipate a change in lesson plans. I did not give the exit ticket to 5th & 6th period
because it took them longer to complete the in-class assignment, not to mention the
fact that we got started late because I had to deal with behavior issues at the
beginning of class.
