Chapter 13 - Lesson 2 Notes

Today, I went over a note taking and reading strategy called "Chapter preview" with the kids. Chapter preview is an AVID strategy where students scan the chapter and read the large, highlighted, bold, italicized and different colored text only. They also read the captions to photos or diagrams. I attempted to show the students how much useful information could be gleaned using this technique and how much faster it is than just reading the chapter word for word.

Attached are the Chapter 13 - Lesson 2 notes. This is a fleshed out version of the notes the kids took today using the Chapter preview strategy.
