Assignments: February 22, L2/3

L2 and L3 need to read pages 19 to 45. As you read, remember to create and use a plot/character timeline and a triple entry journal. Below is a reminder of what those two strategies are.

The Plot and Character Timeline

The Timeline is a line. Along the top is a chronological list of things that happened in your reading that day. This should include "cave man" notes and page numbers (very important!). You may need a Flashback line and/or a Foreshadowing line if the narrator looks back at the past or looks ahead to the future.

Triple Entry Journal

The Triple Entry Journal consists of three columns. In the first column, you must write the vocabulary word you stumbled over in your reading. In the second (center) column, you must write a definition in your own words. You may find the definition either by reading it in context or by looking it up in a dictionary. In the third column, you must use the word in an original sentence of your creation.
