Read the interview and be prepared for a short oral quiz in the next class.

"The Students That Keep Teachers Inspired" and click on the title.

2. Get Big Magic and begin reading in preparation for a quiz April 7.

3.A.  Due March 31 -- Project One

 Find an article on one of the following.

 Interest for a home mortgage

How web browsers individualize searches

Healthcare cost of a single urgent care visit

Community college enrollment trends

Student loan debt

 For the one you choose, you will need to print it and annotate it.

3. B. Due April 7. Go through these steps in the Reading Process:
 
Type 5 questions BEFORE you read.
  1. As you read, circle 10 unfamiliar words (on the article itself)
  2. After you read, type answers to the questions you made before you read. Then, type a 5-item True or False quiz about the article. Then, type the “guessed meanings” of each unfamiliar word, and then type the dictionary meaning below it.
  3. Finally, type a ½ page summary of it.
