I have successfully used the "Saving Beauty" lesson, but I used a different article. We were studying fossil fuels in science, and I found an article in Time about an oil tycoon who was searching for oil off the coast of Africa. I explained to the students that I wanted to read the article in order to learn more about what I was teaching them. This sparked their interest. They understood that I was reading with purpose, yet I still had difficulty. They loved the lesson. They especially like reminding me of the strategies I should use to help myself.
