Stategy--Visualizing
- We went around the room, and each person told one detail he/she remembered from yesterday's chapter, "The Monkey Garden". This showed us that visualizing when we read works to help us remember material better.
- We had a gallery walk in the hallway to view the "Monkey Garden" posters.
- I handed out the Bookmark Journal form for Visualizing, which we're going to fill out today when we are reading our own books.
Strategy--Somebody Wanted But So
I handed out an example of how the strategy works, and we got with our vocab partners from yesterday to use this strategy on 'The Monkey Garden".
Independent Reading
- We completed the six-way paragraph.
- We read and relaxed.
- We worked on our visualizing bookmark journal.

Due
- Ten highlights/underlinings and annotations from, "Now, Where Have I Seen Her Before?"
Quick-Write #3
- We took ten minutes to write on the myth quote of our choice.
Pair-Share--Greek References and Allusions

Reflection/Directions
*References and allusions you already knew?

*…ones that were new to you—Sisyphus; Procrustes; Pan; Tantalus

• You’ve already selected ONE person or thing from this list, and you’re creating a powerpoint over it.
• You will also need ONE to use for your Mythological Barbie/Ken project.
• You will also need ONE to use for your Facebook project.
Total = 3 from page 3
