Reflection:
- Students started reading "Rogue Wave" out of the textbooks. We had a lot of great discussions about vocabulary throughout the reading, such as different marine and sailing terms.
- For this reading, we pop-corn read, and I read aloud a lot of the text. I'm going to slowly wean this group off of such things, because that's what they seem to be used to, and of course, when they are tested at the end of the year, they won't be able to have that as a resource.
- The students overall struggled a lot with the understanding of the text, but I assisted a lot through discussions and prompts in class. In the future, it would probably benefit the students to create graphic organizers to help guide their reading once I start having them do it more independently. At the moment, students are practicing with their note-taking and take notes throughout class over our discussing and the prompts I give them.
