Remember how we organize our information:
Next, I would like us to think about the expression: The Hero’s Journey. Write whatever comes to mind about these words. Unpack them.
Using a device, view the following video on The Hero’s Journey and after viewing, record ONLY 3 ideas from the video. There are many ideas in this video, so you need to make a decision about what 3 ideas to capture now. Be prepared to share your choices.
Next, we are reading a fictional text. You will do this independently so that you can show me what you know about reading this type of text, what strategies you use, and how you organize your thinking.
Finally, you will complete a Reading Survey so that I can learn more about you as a reader.
