2. Turn in your HeLa and MSK novel to the front of the classroom. Make sure to sign in the book on the paper.
3. We will read for 10 minutes.  After the timer goes off, please mark in your Reading Chart how many pages you read.
• I have some new novels available to check out.  See me if you are interested. 
4. After reading, go to your writing section. Complete the VOICE: Metaphor activity. 10 minutes.
5. Then, work on Vocabulary.com for 5 minutes.
6. You will check out your Night novel.  We will listen to part of Chapter 1 together.
7. With your randomly assigned partner, you will work to complete the Night Web Quest.
• Each partner will work in a different color. Only 1 partner will submit the assignment. 1 partner needs to make a copy of the assignment and share it with your partner.
8. While reading Night, you will analyze the text using Sticky Notes.  You must have 5 sticky notes per chapter- make sure you put the Page #s on the sticky notes.  These sticky notes will be:

3. Character Detail (significant information and/or change)
4. Symbol w/meaning (cannot be the same as your Power Line)
