1. Reading Act Notes: At the end of every act (or important scene) students are asked to
jot down any thoughts, inquiries and other annotations. This is in place of a sticky
note annotation ongoing assignment, because after talking to students many of them
think that having to stop and write while reading takes away from the reading. This
will not be a formal assignment and therefore will not have an assignment sheet. But,
it is something we will have gone over and normed as a class earlier in the year. At
this point in the semester it will be a routine.

Planned Lesson Activities

Name and Purpose of Lesson- as it relates to Reading Day #1 and End of Act Annotations
the unit Today I want to give students time to read in class. They will be starting an
extremely difficult text and therefore it will be good to have them in class to begin
reading. Some of the reading will be aloud and some will be silently. Students will
be briefly reminded of the ongoing assignment to annotate and interact with the
text for accountability.
