Self-Starter:  Individual Reading and fill out logs
2.  Fluency Practice


 3. Finish reading Hugo Cabret  
    4. Answer Questions about Hugo Cabret
            Who is your favorite character and why?
            What do you think is the climax -- the point where things change and the problems are resolved/fixed?
            What difference does the setting make in the story?  How is it different because it is set in a train station in Paris than it would be otherwise?  
            What is a theme or message you get from the book? 
                Perhaps -- Don't give up on who you are?
                                  You are probably appreciated more than you realize.
                                  Kindness pays.
                                  We seldom really know the problems someone else has been through.

Why didn't we have as many vocabulary words toward the end as we did at the beginning? 

5.  Practicing Skills and Strategies with short texts -- Practice (Sample) Exercise: "Street Luge" -- We timed our silent reading of the article. Next time we will go through sample questions and answers.
