Why does ELA start with reading for 10 minutes?

• So we consistently read books.

• To start class in a familiar, calm, and productive way.

• All of the above.

My ELA notebook and folder should always be stored...

• with me.

• in my locker.

• in my bedroom at home.

• in the bins in class labeled with my course number.

Why do Mrs. Hayden and Mrs. Shilinski give out stickers to some people at the start of class?

• Some students are their favorites.

• Stickers are given to students who have arrived on time, followed all directions on the board, and are reading their books.

• The stickers are for extra credit.

Parallel teaching is a co-teaching structure that Mrs. Hayden and Mrs. Shilinski use often. Why do they teach this way?

• It is easier for students to get help from a teacher.

• It is easier for students to ask questions.

• It is better for students to work in smaller groups.

• all of the above.
