SAT/ACT 準備 - 主題を見つける

This class will begin with a 3 minute do now activity to introduce students to the topic for the class (main idea). Once the do now is over, we will briefly review it and then move on to the mini-lesson. This lesson is no longer than ten minutes and follows the I do, we do, you do format. I will model reading a short text and using details from the text to identify a main idea. Then, using the main idea I identified, I will model reviewing the multiple choice question responses to find which option most closely matches my own main idea. After this, the class will have a few minutes to work on another example problem before we go over the correct response, asking students for input on which answer they chose and why. Once the mini-lesson has concluded, students will work on their own assignment of several main idea based questions. During the last five minutes of class, students should review their answers with each other and try to figure out which answers are correct. Students will then be assigned homework based on finding the main idea (this homework is voluntary so that if students choose to do so, they can continue practicing this skill once this class is over).
