Good morning class, We are going to focus on reading comprehension today. Read one of these two information pieces on the Himalayas and search for meaning throughout. This means you will need to focus on each word and relate it to your own experiences and other things you have read or seen.

Remember - when you are writing your answers, include them as full sentences and elaborate!
