Article of the Week (AoW) was created to help you build prior knowledge and to broaden your reading experiences in real-world text. AoW will be due every second and fourth Tuesday of the month. You will be required to come to class with an annotated article, a response recorded in your Reading Response Journal, and ready to discuss your thoughts on the topic. If you would rather find your own article, you must get it approved by Ms. Schaefer at least two days before it is due. First you will read and annotate the article. Then you will complete a one page response to the article in your Reading Response Journal. (We will go over in class how to properly annotate and respond in the first few weeks of school.)
