Monday: Critical Literacy #1

If you did NOT turn in your homework Friday then please do it now - WRITE MONDAY ON IT (I'll know anyway so just do me the favor and do it):  Put your homework (worksheet AND 5 paragraphs on a separate sheet) ON THE DESK next to you while you do your typing exercises.  The teacher will collect them.  



Learning Target(s):
  • I can use my Literacy Skills to read, understand, and respond in writing to a government document
Announcements:  
  • Well you may have guessed that I'm still ill.  Not going to die but dang has this been painful.  If you have a strong stomach I'll be happy to describe what happened when I return, which should be tomorrow Wednesday.
Agenda:
  • WarmUp [10]
    • Teacher collects late & extension homework during typing practice
  • Critical Literacy: The City of Fremont Alternative Confinement Program [35-45]
    • NOTE
      • READ BEFORE YOU ANSWER
      • PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO READ FOR EACH QUESTION
      • TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY AND WORK AS FAST AS YOU CAN
    • STEPS
      • LOOK AT EACH QUESTION IN ORDER
      • DETERMINE WHAT IS TO BE READ
