Ms. Seger's Homework
*MBES No Homework Day is Wednesday!
1. Reading Expectations: (READ EVERY NIGHT!)
* How Long Should I Read?
On Level: 10 - 20 minutes each night
Advanced and Accelerated: 20 - 30 minutes each night
*What Should I be Reading - Fiction or Non-Fiction?
Pick a Just Right Book that is fiction.
THINK about the Main Character as you read ... what is their Character Trait? What are their Motivations?
Can you find evidence to prove their Character Trait from how they look, how they act, and what they say or think?
*What do I do after I Read?
We are constantly jotting while reading in class. Go back and re-read a chapter and practice jotting. Remember to jot about Story Elements (Characters, Plot, Conflict, Theme, Setting) and different theories that you come up with. Jotting while you read or after you read can really help you fully comprehend a text and find deeper meaning!
