Today we will set our reading rates.

You want to establish a weekly goal and track your reading progress.

I hope that today you will be able to log into Sesame and record that reading goal.

I will be introducing the wiki–Global Perspectives: A textbook for teens by teens. We will make a note about audience, purpose, conventions of the wiki (or web) page, and design elements. Finally, you will go on a wiki page scavenger hunt.

You will find the scavenger hunt here.
