Long Time No See Kiddies!

Happy Monday Y'all!

      Today is Monday, December 6, 2010.  Guess what?  We get to dive into another Unsolved Mystery from History!!  The unsolved mystery is called The Wolf Girls.  This book will help us conduct more inquiry about text we read.  We will also interact with the text.  We will ask questions, make connections, come up with theories, reread to look for evidence, and make inferences. 
      Think back to Friday last week when we used The Five E's to explore PURPOSE.  Well, you are going to employ The Five E's again only this time your PURPOSE will be to listen to the story SO THAT you can summarize/paraphrase what you hear and see. 
      Your guest teacher will read you the story portion of The Wolf Girls.  When I am back in the room tomorrow we will THINK DEEPER.  We will reread, explore the notes, AND the 4 theories our detective friend has come up with at the end of the book.  Your only PURPOSE today is to listen to the story and summarize/paraphrase what you remember.  Pay close attention and enjoy!

YOUR HOMEWORK: Write down a theory of your own tonight in a DED (double entry diary).  Make sure you include... 1.) The "quick summary" 2.) Your theory/thoughts 3.) "So What?"/Next steps

Sincerely,
C
P.S. I hear and I forget.
I see and I remember.
I do and I understand.
Do your best and forget the rest!!
