Mrs. Villastrigo reading

We did a mini-unit on study skills this week.  Every student should be able to share their particular preferred learning style or styles.  We looked at two particular study techniques that all three learning styles can use well.  One is the picture method (draw a picture that reminds you of the concept) and the second was the use of mnemonic devices (ex: Never Eat Soggy Waffles, to remember the cardinal directions).  Next week we will begin reading about the Inca and start our novel.
