NYSSLS Warmups

Description: This classroom routine engages students with daily reading and critical thinking exercises. On Day 1, students analyze a stimulus, using a graphic organizer or annotations to capture their thoughts. Days 2-5 begin with a question related to the reading, which students answer for a participation grade. This structure reinforces attendance, accountability, and test-taking skills. Initially using current events in Earth science, the teacher later aligns stimuli with the curriculum, balancing rigor with student success.
