Objective:  I can estimate meanings of words by using their roots and answer questions that I have asked while annotating an Article of the Week.

BW:  Look at the word “communicable” in the “Cerebral Palsy” article.  Estimate its meaning in your own words.

Activities:

  1.  Share Out:  What does it mean?  Why?
  2. Look for another word rooted in the term “communicable.”  Write it down.
  3. How can the word “communicate” be applied to the word “communicable” in the sentence from the article?  How can the word “able” be applied?
  4. Identify the Golden Line in paragraph #1.  What is an appropriate question for it?
  5. Read to find the answer and write it down in your notebook.
  6. Reminder:  Ensure that your A.O.W. for Russian hackers possesses questions/answers, unknowns/definitions, and Golden Lines for each chunk. These annotations are due tomorrow at the beginning of the hour.
