Direct students’ attention back to the first Roman numeral heading and read aloud the sample sentence. 5. Show the video again, pausing it after each key idea. 6. Have student pairs share Anchor Words from their notes. 7. Check for understanding of the note-taking skill by having students complete the Discuss and Write questions in the 44Book.
