    • While reading, I want to see you:
      1. With your book open, your scan for vocabulary out, and a Reading Pyramid out
      2. Listening to the recordings below while reading.
      3. Stopping after each paragraph, CLOSING THE BOOK, and writing a summary sentence.
        • If you have trouble with that last part, that probably means there are words in the paragraph that you still need to look up. Also, it means you need to re-read that paragraph.
