MAIN IDEA Mrs. Petamber

Main Idea What is it? How do we find it? How do we remember it? Let’s try it.

What is main idea? Main idea tells what a story is mostly about. When looking for main idea we must think of what FINALLY happened in the story.

How do we find the main idea? Let’s use our hands!

How do we find the main idea? The thumb stands for who. The who of a story is very important, without knowing who the story is about we can’t find the main idea.

How do we find the main idea? The pointer finger stands for did what. What did the main character finally do?

How do we find the main idea? The third finger stands for where. Where did the main character do it?

How do we find the main idea? The ring finger stands for when. When did the main character do it?

How do we find the main idea? The pinky stands for why. Why did the main character do it?

How do we remember main idea? Remembering is easy!!! Just look at your fingers. Thumb - Who? Pointer - Did what? Middle finger - Where? Ring finger - When? Pinky - Why?

Let’s try it!! Using the book Comprehension Strategies and our five fingers let’s find the main idea. Remember to think about the word FINALLY. What finally happened in the story?

Mark, Karl, Kim Mom Dad and I. Tree House Who? Mark, Karl, Kim Mom Dad and I.

Tree House Did what? Built a tree house

Tree House Where? In our Back Yard

Tree House When? One Day
