Today we studied another signpost: "Again & Again"
We read the first chapter of Hatchet, then went back and looked at 3 excerpts from the book. When we notice a word, phrase, or situation mentioned over and over, stop and ask yourself:
We read the first chapter of Hatchet, then went back and looked at 3 excerpts from the book. When we notice a word, phrase, or situation mentioned over and over, stop and ask yourself:

Then we went back to the three excerpts and applied the anchor question to each one. We can see clearly in the first excerpt that the word "divorce" is used twice. In both cases, it is a single word sentence, which emphasizes the word. Jot notes about the anchor question, and why "divorce" might be showing up repeatedly, in the margins of the excerpts.
We also added a flowchart about Point of View to the Reading Notebook as a reference sheet for future reading and writing. Then students used the flowchart to practice on a worksheet with three passages to identify point of view.
