Read and Annotate (directly on the packet):

The Price of Perfection

Let's pre-read the first page.

What are some things you notice?

Now, let's take a look at the introduction part of Henig's argument.

During the Read Aloud think about these two questions:

1. How does she "hook the reader"?

2. How does Henig establish her ethos with the audience?

Every piece of information included in your Gallery Walk was used to Hook you into today's lesson as I begin introducing our new reading.

Let's take a look at your Hooks handout.
