Chapter 13 Notes

Question 1: I feel it is important to know how to use the different parts of a textbook as it will help make schooling easier and completing assignments with knowing where to look. The table of contents will help the students find the correct page they are looking for along with the vocabulary in the back of the book. Another aspect of a textbook is the author section when looking for a specific one. Knowing how to use all the sections of the textbook will be useful when they are younger but also as they continue in college and writing longer papers and being able to find everything that is needed.

Activities for Presenting Content Simplifying Tests Creating Visual Displays

Simplifying Text

Presenting Content * To present this textbooks content I would ask questions throughout the reading to help the students understand what is being read and to make them think. They could also do a writing assignment after reading to make sure they remember what was read.

Visual Display The type of visual display that I always liked for textbooks was outlines that I had to fill in as I read and the outline could also include vocabulary. Who each person was and what their role was in the text.
