8. Fluency
Personal Rehearsal Practice reading “Choosing to Change” on page 51 of your Practice Companion with proper pacing. Reading too fast or too slow makes the text difficult to understand. With a partner, rehearse the selection and complete the Reading Response Form on page 51 of your Reading Companion.

9. Let’s prepare to read . . . set a purpose
As we prepare to read the selection, we should be looking for the answer to our Theme Question: How do the changes around us make us who we are? We will also be looking for evidence in the text that supports the answers that we have been thinking about. As we read, we can skim and scan across the text to help us find the information we need to answer the question while skipping over the information we don’t need.
