Students will write down what they think that they know about severe weather and share with their elbow partner.
Then the material is read but rather than annotating it on the textbook, students will write down key points, ideas or concepts as they acquire this new material.
Moreover, as the material is being read, students will confirm or refute (misconceptions) what they thought that they knew about severe weather through documentations of their findings in their notebooks.
Furthermore, students will list any questions that they may still wonder about as they read this topic or when they are done reading it.
