Reminder: Next week is the start of Terra Nova testing. It is important that everyone shows up on time.  Testing begins promptly at 8:30; if you arrive later you will not be admitted to the classroom and a make-up will have to be worked out.  

Read pages 135 - 160 in The Watsons Go to Birmingham--1963 and do two of the following on a loose leaf piece of paper. Make sure you're ready for tomorrow's quiz on this section of reading. 

- Make a connection: Quote a passage, with page number, that reminds you of something that has happened to you.  Write at least two sentences briefly describing the connection you made.
- Expand your vocabulary: Find two words you do not know the meaning of.  Quote the sentence the word is used in and its page number. Write one sentence describing what you think the words means.
- Make a prediction: Quote a passage, with page number, that makes you think something is going to happen. Briefly describe what your prediction is.
- Ask a question: Find a passage that you have a question about, quote the passage, with the page number, and write your question. This might be something that is unclear or makes you wonder about something.
