Warm-up: Answer the following question: What helps you to understand the text when reading? List some strategies that you use that are helpful to you.

 Pass forward homework.  10% off for each day late, starting tomorrow.  Period 1: Please turn in your warm-ups on the stool at the end of class.  Parent meeting for China trip is on Thursday at 4:30.  If you don’t have your book today, don’t sweat it; however, bring your book from here on out until told otherwise.  Remember: You get 5 points off for not bringing your textbook!

STANDARDS Reading 3.12: Analyze the way in which a work of literature is related to the themes and issues of its historical period.

 Reading is like a sport– the more you practice good techniques, the easier it gets!  Since the course will require you to read somewhat challenging texts, let’s review some good active reading techniques.

 Technique #1: When reading in class, ALWAYS follow along with BOTH your ears and eyes.

 Technique #2: If you don’t understand a word, look it up (…or ask ).

 Technique #3: Stop often to think about what you are reading.  Don’t rush through the text.  While stories are amusing, they are usually also teaching you something important; reading ONLY for amusement will cause you to miss out on valuable learning!

 Technique #4: Make notes about the text.  This is also called annotating the text.  Write down questions, summarize difficult parts, underline important parts, write down bigger ideas, etc.

 Together, we will read “Eveline” by James Joyce– Ireland’s greatest writer (pg. 1166). Annotations due Wednesday.
