 * <span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Scaffolding **
 * 1) <span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Explain each of the options for how the students could write A Year in Review and show them examples of each—either examples I created or real life examples, such as the Time’s Magazine articles.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Then I would read them my 1962 year in review all the way through once. After I read through it, I would then do a think aloud detailing how I found the events and then arranged them into a poem.
 * 3) <span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style',serif; font-size: 12pt;">With a partner, students would work together to find five events that they would include in a year in review for 1994; this is a way for them to practice finding events before they begin their own year in review.
 * 4) <span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Each group would then come up to the board and write down one event they feel is important to include.
 * 5) <span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Once all the events they want to include are on the board, as a class we would pick a mode for writing and write a joint effort year in review.
 * 6) <span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Finally, students can pick a year and a writing style to create their own year in review.
