Activity 5: Independent Reading/Research

Today you will apply your close reading skills to the Internet. You and your partner will dig into the site linked below and answer the questions in your English journal.

Here is your link: PBS: The Story of American Public Education

Questions to answer with your partner:
  1. How is this website organized? (describe the text features you see)
  2. What ideas or information does the website present?
  3. How does this website add to my current knowledge about this topic (the same topic you have analyzed through images and personal narrative?)
  4. Now dig deeper. Dig into the content from one of the website's tabs and learns something new! Write about it so you can share with the class.
