Gather around the middle table in your row, taking your stool, reading packet, It's Getting Hot In Here Reading Questions worksheet, and writing utensil.
Take turns reading aloud within your group. When finished, work together to complete the questions for your group (1, 2, or 3).

Students from other groups then fill in their worksheets using the other groups' answers.
When finished, get a checkmark for your question sheet, glue into your notebook and do color processing.
