Introduce the content (i.e., short passage, article, video)

Provide students with time to review the information (e.g., read aloud, independent reading, partner reading).

Use the 3-2-1 Summary strategy to list three new discoveries (e.g., "I learned that whales are mammals."), two interesting facts (e.g., "Whales are not fish!"), and one question (e.g., "Are whale sharks whales or sharks?") in order to synthesize the information they have learned and grow inquiries.
