- Your reading test will be on Monday, March 28 IN CLASS. You should review Units 6, 7, and 8 for reading comprehension. You should also review patterns of organization. For longer sections of reading, I will ask you to identify the pattern of organization (cause/effect, etc.) and the main idea (a complete sentence). These two answers should be similar. I will also ask you to explain your answer. For example, if you said the pattern was compare/contrast, you would list signal words from the paragraph, such as while, likewise. You could also say Sentences 1-5 show similarities. Sentences 6-8 show differences.
