Every time they find a word that is too hard for them on that page, one finger goes down. If they put all five fingers down on the same page, they must then exchange the book and find another that is not so difficult. The review is completed with a discussion of how they use the card catalog. Students line up and go to the library, book lists in hand. At the library, they go to the card file and look up, then locate their books.
Every student checks out a book.
The students return to the classroom with their books and examine them, speculating on what the books might be about and filling out prediction sheets. They then begin reading the books.
