6 Day 4-Identifying and Comparing Now that we have created anchor charts to use as a reference and we have taken a look at each structure as well as modeled, we are going to first identify the structures and then compare the structures.

7 Now it’s your turn! On the next few slides, you will read some paragraphs about the Great Chicago Fire Your task is to decide on the text structure for each one Understanding the text structure will help you to understand each paragraph

8 What’s the text structure? Chronological order Compare and contrast Cause and effect Problem and solution Main idea Daniel Sullivan was the first to notice the flames coming from the O’Leary barn at around 8:30 pm on October 8. A problem with the alarm box made it impossible for the people in the area to call for the fire department. By 9:30 pm, the entire block was blazing. In another 3 hours, there were fires all over Chicago. The heavy wind coming from the lake only made the fire bigger. It would be another day before the fire would be completely out. By that time, 17,500 buildings had been burned.

Chronological order Notice how the paragraph shows how events happen in time order Daniel Sullivan was the first to notice the flames coming from the O’Leary barn at around 8:30 pm on October 8.

By that time, 17,500 buildings had been burned.

10 Try another! Chronological order Compare and contrast Cause and effect Problem and solution Main idea Why was the Great Chicago Fire so disastrous? After all, Chicago had fire departments and fire alarms. One reason for the terrible fire is that the alarm malfunctioned. The local fire company noticed the fire by accident as it was returning from another fire. As another problem, a watchman who saw the flames directed other fire companies to a location that was nearly a mile away from the fire. Because of these two problems, a fire that could have been controlled rapidly spread across the city.

13 What text structure is here? Chronological order Compare and contrast Cause and effect Problem and solution Main idea After the fire, thousands of people were left homeless. Many escaped the fire with nothing except the clothes on their backs. Providing all of these people with food, clean water, and shelter was a huge task. Luckily, the city quickly formed a Relief and Aid Society. This group started giving out the food donations that were pouring in from other cities. The society built places for people to live, gathered the tools that people needed to rebuild their houses, and even vaccinated 64,000 people against smallpox.

17 Can you find the text structure? Chronological order Compare and contrast Cause and effect Problem and solution Main idea Chicago changed in many ways after the fire. Before the fire, most of the buildings were less than five stories high. The buildings that were constructed after the fire, however, were some of the first skyscrapers in the country. Before the fire, most of the houses were made of wood. After the fire, people chose to build their houses out of stone or brick. There were changes in where people lived, as well. The poor people in the city lived close to the center of the city before the fire. After the fire, they moved into neighborhoods that were farther away from the downtown area.

21 One more paragraph! By Monday night, the town of Chicago was burning. People described it as terrible, but amazing. The flames were brighter than anything people had ever seen. The harsh winds swept the fire across the city with terrible speed. For many who watched, it was a sight to remember for the rest of their lives.

24 Let’s Compare! Let’s see how we learn different information on the same topic just by how it is organized! We are going to read about peanuts. I want you to read each paragraph and as a pair decide how you think it is organized. Then, discuss how the information changes due to its text structure.

28 How about these two?? (A)Wildfires can cause the destruction of trees and forests. Nonetheless, there are several benefits to wildfires. Some trees can only reproduce after a fire. Certain pine tress cones are sealed with something called pitch. A pinecone’s seeds can only be released after a fire has melted away the pitch. Aspen and birch tree seeds will also only sprout roots following a fire. Also, ash remaining after a fire adds nutrients to the soil. Deer and other animals feed on new grasses and shrubs that grow after forest fires. These are a few of the benefits of a wildfire. (B)Most wildfires are caused by humans. People who live in or near the woods in fire-prone areas should follow certain guidelines to help prevent the spread of wildfires. First, homeowners should use non- flammable roof and deck materials on their homes. They should trim their trees regularly. There should be at least a five foot opening between neighboring trees. Further, there should be no tree limbs within ten feet of the ground. This will reduce the chance that flames will travel to the top of the trees. Finally, homeowners should keep the lawn well-watered and cut short.

29 Being a Writer

30 Day 4 - In today’s lesson, you will: Explore strong opening sentences Reread your own writing critically (looking for places to make it better) Revise your drafts Give your full attention to the person who is speaking

31 Analyzing Strong Opening Sentences Gather next to your partner. You will need: pencils, writing notebooks, and your Student Writing Handbooks. Opening sentences need to grab the reader’s attention. Today I will read opening sentences to you from a personal narrative that you heard earlier in the unit. You will need to think about how that author was able to get you interested in the passage by having a strong opening sentence.

32 Strong Opening Sentences Open your student writing handbook to page 12 where the opening sentences are reproduced. Read silently with me as I read aloud the first passage from “Never the Monkey” What does the author do to get us interested in this piece of writing? What words or phrases help us imagine what’s happening?

33 Strong Opening Sentences Work in pairs for the remaining opening sentences. Underline words and sentences that you feel are especially effective at making the reader want to keep reading the story. Be prepared to talk about what you underlined and explain why you underlined it.

34 Is Your Opening Sentence Strong? Reread the first few sentences of your own personal narrative. Think to yourself about: How might you revise your opening sentences to grab the reader’s attention and make him or her want to keep reading?

35 Writing Time (20-30 Minutes) Today you are to work on revising your opening sentences. Make sure it grabs the reader’s attention. After revising your opening sentences you may make any other revisions or additions so your piece is as complete and as interesting as it can be.

36 Sharing and Reflecting A few of you will volunteer to read your opening sentences. After a few of you have shared we will discuss the following questions. What words did you hear in _________’s opening sentences that make you want to keep reading? What ideas, if any, does this give you for your own opening sentences?
