"NAVE": Helicopter Crashes Article Vocabulary
Nonfiction Article Vocabulary and Exploration (NAVE): We will explore Katy Waldman's intriguing article in Slate on helicopter crashes http://www.slate.com/id/2293385/. It's called "Black Hawk Down: Why do helicopters seem to crash all the time?"
Nonfiction articles are rich in vocabulary that is specific to a content, which in this instance is helicopter flights and functioning. This is called "Tier 3 Vocabulary." They are also rich in "Tier 2" vocabulary, which is language that helps the writer discuss the material.
Do the vocabulary until you ace it, but you only are expected to do the written summary once, unless a revision is expected. See the link in that section to open up the place to submit your summary. You can write it there, but please save it elsewhere as well.
