• I can create a graphic organizer.
• I can use a graphic organizer.

Writing Response: What is a sequence chart?  How could this be useful to have while reading?

To Do:
1) Independent Reading
2) Reading Journal

3) Begin reading "Clean Sweep" (pg. 64)
4) While reading, students will make a list of significant events in the story, looking out for keywords and phrases, such as:

• then
• days/months/years ago
• has/have
• will
• are going to
• first
• second
• finally

Students will want to compile at least eight (8) events, and will then want to place them in a Sequence Chart.
