3. Objective of CIS Students will deeply process and comprehend a short complex literary or informational text using the following strategies: Reading and rereading Coding the text while engaged in critical thinking Generating questions and answers based on the text Directed note-taking Participating in extended text discussions 3

4. Purpose of CIS Sequence of instruction Supports deeper engagement and comprehension of complex text Brings authentic, real world relevance to text reading Provides a purpose for reading Allows teachers to model fluent reading

5. Read to Build Deep Comprehension Hook Question Take a Position Discussion Writing Take a Position Handout Respond to Essential Question Vocabulary Using context clues Using Text Coding 1. Teacher explains & models 2. Teacher reads text aloud 3. Students discuss responses Directed Note-taking Guided Question and Categories 1. Students read text & identify text structures in pairs or small groups while the teacher works with struggling students. 2. Students will also record and categorize their notes and then compare their responses with the rest of the group. 3. Groups should place a star next to the most significant note in each category. Reread and Generate Questions to Deepen Comprehension 1. Teacher models how to write questions by rereading a portion of the text. 2. Students record the questions. 3. In small groups, students reread and create their own questions, share them with the class and look for similarities. Read to Use Text Evidence to Validate Responses Writing Students should use their notes when reviewing or revising answers to the essential question.

12. November 7, 2011 Seeing a milkshake can activate the same areas of the brain that light up when an addict sees cocaine, U.S. researchers said on Monday. The study helps explain why it can be so hard for some people to maintain a healthy weight, and why it has been so difficult for drugmakers and health experts to find obesity treatments that work. "If certain foods are addictive, this may partially explain the difficulty people experience in achieving sustainable weight loss," Ashley Gearhardt of Yale University in Connecticut and colleagues wrote in the Archives of General Psychiatry. Gearhardt's team wanted to see what happens in the brain when young women are tempted by a tasty treat. They used a type of brain imaging known as functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, to study brain activity in 48 young women who were offered a chocolate milkshake or a tasteless solution. Women in the study ranged from lean to obese. The team found that seeing the milkshake triggered brain activity in the anterior cingulate cortex and the medial orbitofrontal cortex -- brain areas that have been implicated in an addict's urge to use drugs. And this activity was higher among women in the study who had high scores on a scale that assessed their eating habits for signs of addictive behavior. "These findings support the theory that compulsive food consumption may be driven in part by an enhanced anticipation of the rewarding properties of food," Gearhardt and colleagues wrote. People who are addicted to a substance are more likely to react with physical, psychological and behavioral changes when exposed to that substance. Altering visual "cues" -- billboards of tempting treats, for example -- might help curb the urge to indulge, they said. "Ubiquitous food advertising and the availability of inexpensive palatable foods may make it extremely difficult to adhere to healthier food choices because the omnipresent food cues trigger the reward system," they wrote. The study suggests that advertising might also play a role in the nation's obesity problem, and future studies should look at whether food ads trigger this same kind of brain activity. Obesity is one of the biggest health challenges facing the United States, and health officials already added a requirement to President Barack Obama's new healthcare law requiring that restaurants add calorie counts to their menus.

13. Coding the Text – Teacher Models Reading Teacher reads a few paragraphs aloud to students. Students begin to mark/code their text.

14. Coding the Text – Teacher Models Reading Directions: As the text is read aloud to you, mark the text with the following code. CodeIf … H this section of text includes information presented as a scientific Hypothesis. FI this section of text includes information presented as a Scientific Finding. FA this section of text includes information presented as a Scientific Fact.

15. After Text Marking In small groups, compare and discuss differences in text coding. Support your suggested answers from the text. 15

16. Guiding Question – Student Focus According to the text, which factors impact health choices?

17. Students Read the Text Students should read in: Pairs Small groups While reading, students should identify and discuss which text structures apply to the text.

27. Text Based Essential Questions According to the text and further discussion, in your opinion, which environmental factor most strongly affects personal health? Use information from notes to help write final response on the Essential Question Handout. Share answers in small groups. As part of whole class discussion, record responses to the essential question in multiple choice format. 27 Handout 5
