This is a generic reading strategy plan that can go along with any type of reading-especially helpful for newspapers, or magazine articles. I actually made this up to use with my faculty to model reading strategies as we read academic journal articles!

Literature Circle Jobs
Literature Circles are a good way for students to interact with whatever you are reading. They break into groups and each group has a job. These are my ESL adapted descriptions of each job. I have done this with novice to advanced classes-only the reading texts are different!

Ramadan/Islam
I used this test when teaching about all of the winter holidays with my novice/elementary English learners. I used it with novice high schoolers, but I think it is appropriate for anyone learning about Islam and Ramadan. It is very simple, but covers the basics.
