                       ______________________________________________________
List important details and ideas that support the author’s thesis statement (Provide 3-4
with specific evidence from the text.)




Create two questions about the subject, article or author.
   1. Factual: __________________________________________________________

                       __________________________________________________________

      2. Inferential:________________________________________________________

                        ________________________________________________________
If you are the discussion leader, you do not need to complete the above questions, instead you need to
determine the author’s thesis statement, and develop a series of questions with your partner that:

         a) Review the reading and check for understanding (2-3). You should call on specific students to
            answer these at the start of the discussion.
         b) Are thought provoking and analytical, as well as make connections to current/historical
            events. (4-5)

These are to be done on a separate sheet of paper and labeled and numbered appropriately. Do not write
them on the article itself.
