Tuesday, May 3 - Fiction Assessment

Objective: By the end of class, students will be assessed on elements of fiction in order to prepare for the Keystone exam.

DO NOW

Train your brain - these multiple choice questions are doable without reading a passage. Read them carefully and use multiple choice strategies. You need to know your definitions of elements of fiction in order to do this successfully.

Direct Instruction

Read "Call of the Wild." Answer the 5 multiple choice questions - they are worth 10 points each!!

Answer the CRQ on the back. Be sure to:

RESTATE
EXPLAIN IN YOUR OWN WORDS
QUOTE 
CONCLUDE

Many of you are not explaining enough in your own words. This is important for the Keystone exam. The quote you use SUPPORTS what YOU say...not the other way around. Be sure you explain enough so that the reader understands your answer without having to go back and look at the text.

Check for Understanding / Closure

Review answers to Train your Brain (I will grade and return them while you are taking the Call of Wild test)
