Objective: I can find the main ideas and golden lines of the “concussions” article by changing the subtitles into questions and looking for the answers in the text and underlining them.
BW: Review the claim statement of the “concussions” article we found on Monday(9/25). Reread the whole “concussions” article. Answer this question: Why does the article not provide a clearly-stated amount of time for watching concussions? Use evidence.
