Reading Response for Wednesday, May 22, 2013

Please consider looking at this Reading Response post by Zhao Lun from 2 weeks ago.  It is an excellent example of how a Reading Response should look and sound like:

24 newspaper Response: Date: May 2nd, 2013  He has put the date.  Please also include the title of the article you read.

Retell:  Explains or summarizes what the article is about.

3 men were charged of interfering in the Boston bombing, they stated they had hid fireworks in a suspect's backpack during the bombing. People say the "trio" swiftly covered for his friend from the FBI, they leaked some pictures of the suspects.

Relate:  Zhao Lun makes a connection with the article and offers some insightful ideas and connections to things he has read or heard about before.

It makes me feel sick to know United States makes war and not truce, If united States had stood down and signed a peace treaty, they might of saved themselves some time to fix the poverty, homeless, and to fix up the places that has been broken down, but instead of aiding their homes, their just making it even worse.

Reflect:  This section reads very similar to the one he wrote before and allows him some more time to make connections.

I have nothing to reflect on this, but to say that there are other bombings that were even more devastating like the Afghan Wedding Party bombing, 30 people were killed in the bombing, and it wasn't even given attention like the Boston bombing, I'm not saying that the Boston Bombing wasn't big, but I think they should give more attention to other bombings too. 

For today's Reading Response, please go to the 24 newspaper homepage (http://eedition.toronto.24hrs.ca/epaper/viewer.aspx

Select an article from today's (TUESDAY) online newspaper to do your work.  You must have the Retell, Relate, and Reflect portions completed.  The article does not have to be long!

Use the posting from April 30 if you are stuck with how you are supposed to set up your Reading Response.  Mr. Proudfoot will be reading these by Friday, May 24th.
