Hi class:
We have used WH Question Words strategies to to locate the topic sentence, main idea, and to find specific details in a paragraph. You should now be able to read an article, such as Hurricane Ike, and give specific details and discussion on such articles. You will also use this approach to understand other types of readings that we will do, such as literature and newspapers. We are now working on readings on comparing and contrasting. You will be choosing two things of your choice ( people, cars, sports, cities and so on,) and comparing the similarities and differences between those things that you choose. In addition, I will be sending you a longer reading passage, a comparison essay, over the weekend 9/19, or 9/20. Read the passages and be prepared to answer the questions at the end of the passage for discussion next week, 9/23.
See you in class.
Prof. Westry
