We have started a new unit about ecosystems. We have started by doing a reading activity that was taught in the ELA classes called chunking. Students pause after each paragraph (or as it is called in the activity "chunk")and pause to write in a chart what the chunk is about and key details about the chunk.
If students have not completed this, the information can be found on the book website http://my.hrw.com user name: rbulldog1 password: r8x8v
The reading is pp. 538-541
Tonight's homework is that students must complete the synthesis portion of their notes. They should tell how each chunk is related to the previous chunk in the reading. We linked the first 3 paragraphs in class.
