1.) Finish your first Fry Challenge:
- Read "Life Among the Aztecs," using a stopwatch to track your reading time. This Online Stopwatch is a good one to use.
- Immediately after you finish reading, record your final reading time.
- Now, test yourself to see how much information you remember from the reading by answering the three sets of questions (Comprehension, Maze, and Vocabulary) attached to the reading packet. Do not look back at the reading! The goal of the exercise is to determine how much information you can accurately recall from the reading.
- Tomorrow: We will calculate your reading speed. We will also correct your three sets of questions to calculate your accuracy rate.
2.) Twenty-Minute Habit, Log.
(Considering what we learned today about what is possible when we improve our reading speed, maybe it's time to increase your daily habit?)
This graphic is based on...
- 60-minute daily habit
- Six days per week
- Books roughly 70,000 words in length
