Make a Title Page

We are beginning a new novel and need to create a new section to our reading notebook.  Just as with the UDHR, the first page will be our title page for the novel Esperanza Rising. You will write the title, author, and the genre of the novel.  Review the image to the right to create your page.

Leave space, as shown in the cloud, to draw an illustration at a later time to represent this novel.

Making Predictions

We will using the Prediction strategy throughout our novel study and need to document these predictions in our reading notebook.  Take a minute to setup your reading notebook to record these predictions.  You will need to set aside 4 pages (front and back).

Directions

  1. Fold the edge of the page to meet the red/pink line in your notebook. This should create 2 columns.
  2. At the top of the first column, write "Chapter".
  3. At the top of the second column write "Prediction".
  4. At the top of the third column write "Evidence".
  5. On the back of the page, identify the column as "Correct?"
  6. On the next page, label the column "If correct, evidence"
  7. Use your glue stick and put glue on the back of the "Prediction" column.  Glue just this column to the page that follows it.  It should leave your with a flap labeled "Evidence" on one side and "Correct?" on the other.
