1. Timed Section 1 Simulation: Plan It, Run It, Review It
- Before starting the clock, write your pacing plan: minutes 0 to 30 for the informational passage and its items, minutes 30 to 60 for the literary passage and its items, minutes 60 to 70 for flagged items.
- Set a 70-minute timer and complete this week's practice bank in two blocks: first the informational passage items, then the literary passage items, flagging any you are unsure of.
- At each block's end, write the actual time on the clock next to your planned time so you can see whether you ran fast or slow.
- In the final 10 minutes, return only to flagged items, and confirm that every item, including every Part B, has an answer.
- After the timer ends, write a short reflection: which item type slowed you down most, and one change you will make to your plan for the next timed section.
Turn in / bring: A photo or typed copy of your written pacing plan with planned versus actual times for each block, plus your 4 to 6 sentence reflection naming one change for next time.
