I am going to give you a worksheet. When you get your worksheet, please write your name at the top and put your pencil down.

(Hand out the Maze student worksheets. Make sure students have written their names down before proceeding.)

You are going to read a passage with some words missing from it. For each missing word you will see a box with three words in it. Your job is to circle the word you think makes the most sense in the context of the passage. Let’s look at the Practice Passage together. Listen as I read.

Tom goes to a school far from his house. Every morning, he takes a school (pause) bus, pen, work (pause) to go to school.

Let's stop there. Let's circle the word “bus” because I think “bus” makes the most sense here. Listen to how that sentence sounds now.

Every morning, he takes a school bus to go to school.

Now it’s your turn. Read the next sentence silently to yourself. When you come to a box, read all the words in the box and circle the word that makes the most sense to you. When you are done, put your pencil down.

(Allow up to 30 seconds for students to complete the example and put their pencils down.)

If necessary, after 30 seconds say Put your pencil down. As soon as all students have their pencils down, say Good job.

Now listen. In the (pause) afternoon, library, morning (pause), he also takes a bus home. You should have circled “afternoon” because “afternoon” makes the most sense. Listen. In the afternoon, he also takes a bus home.

Okay, when I say “Begin,” turn the page and start reading the passage silently. When you come to a box, read all the words in the box and circle the word that makes the most sense in the passage. You will stop when you come to a stop sign or I say Stop. Ready? Begin. Start your stopwatch.

At the end of 3 minutes, stop your stopwatch and say Stop. Put your pencils down.

RemindersStart timer Start your stopwatch after you say Begin.

Prompts If a student starts reading the passage out loud, say Please read the passage silently. (Repeat as often as needed.)

If a student stops working, say Please keep going until you reach the end of the passage. Just do your best work. (Repeat as often as needed.)

Discontinue There is no discontinue rule. Every student should be encouraged to try their best until three minutes have passed.

Opera Singers

When I think of opera singers, I picture highly emotional, big people in

elaborate costumes. I picture them standing in thecolor middle prequel

of a stage with their arms

loudly slightly wrongly

raised from their sides, and theirmouths phones toes

shaped like an “O”. I imagine

him mine them

singing long, prolonged words I can’taccelerate cooperate understand

, with their voices swooping

and swervingand next still

bouncing and wobbling. Why do operaclappers giraffes singers

sing like that?

The short answergoes is runs

they sing like that because theyaren’t don’t haven’t
