Phonemic Awareness Let’s look at page 220-221 in your Reading book How do you know the teacher is happy? We could say “He is smiling” or we could put the words He and is together to say “He’s smiling”. We call words such as he’s contractions.

Phonics: Contractions We can put words together to make one word, a contraction. he + is = he’s A contraction is a short way of saying or writing two words as one. An apostrophe takes the place of the letters that are left out. can + not = can’t she + will = she’ll I + am = I’m it + is = it’s

Phonics: Contractions When I see a contraction, I notice the two parts and read them together. he’s I can break the contraction back into it’s parts he is

Repeat for worst, laugh, second, great, and either. Let’s read “I Can Read!” together

Text-Based Comprehension Remember our weekly concept is “Changing History”. Listen while I read a story about “Coretta Scott King”. When I read, I ask myself, What is the topic? Then I ask myself, Why did the author write this story?

Text-Based Comprehension Authors write for different reasons. The reason is called the author’s purpose. Two purposes are to inform and to entertain. Good readers identify what the selection is about, called the topic, and the author’s purpose in writing about the topic.

Text-Based Comprehension Turn to page EI2 in your Reading book. These pictures show examples of author’s purpose. What do you see in the first picture that tells you the author’s purpose is to inform? What do you see in the second picture that tells you the author’s purpose is to entertain?

Research and Inquiry: Identify and Focus Topic Look at our Concept Map. Who is someone important in history you want to research this week? Give reasons why? I can research to find out about big events in the person’s whole life, not just about when the person changed history. This will help me learn what the person did and why. I want to find out more about Coretta Scott King. My first questions are “When was she born?” “Did her family move from one place to another?” “When?” When I find answers, I will record them.

Wrap Up Your Day! Phonics: Contractions wasn’t it’s we’ll Spelling – identify the missing words haven’t who’s he’s I’ll Content Knowledge Who did Coretta Scott King work with to change history?

Abraham Lincoln Tuesday Expand the Concept Remember “Look at History” What lessons from the past can we learn from history?

Build Oral Language Listen while I read “Sky Boys”. “So every morning before school you scour the streets for firewood, hunched down in an icy wind” What does “you scour the street for firewood” mean? What other words could we use in place of scour? Why do you think the authors chose the word scour? Turn to your partner and tell about a time you could not find something and had to search for it. Use the word scour to tell how you looked for the thing.

scour scour scour means to go through in search of something. I scour the library for a good book to read. They scour the crowd, looking for a friend. Act out scouring for something. Then use the word scour to describe what you are doing.

Concept Map What does the song “Look at History” say is significant about looking at history? Sometimes people build or create things that change history. What did the construction workers in “Sky Boys” build together? Let’s add “People create and build things” and “Construction workers build the Empire State Building” to the map. In yesterday’s story “Coretta Scott King,” Martin and Coretta worked together to help many people. Let’s add those things to our concept map.

Selection Vocabulary Lincoln was not happy when he noticed that people were slaves. He did not like what he saw and was honest about it. Lincoln became a lawyer so he could help people. It wasn’t Lincoln’s fault that people were slaves, but he did something about it.

Vocabulary Strategy: Dictionary/Glossary: Guide Words When I come across a word I don’t know, I look it up in a dictionary or glossary. To find the word lawyer, I go to the section of the dictionary where guide words at the top begin with the same letters as lawyer. When I find the word entry on the page, I read its definition. Let’s use a dictionary or glossary to find the meaning of elect. What guide words helped you find the word elect? What is the definition of elect?

As I read “Abraham Lincoln”, I will look for patterns in the text to find the text structure.

Text-Based Comprehension Before I read “Abraham Lincoln”, I will predict what happens and set a purpose to guide my reading. As I read, I continue to predict what will happen next and I think about whether my purpose for reading is being met. Let’s read “Abraham Lincoln” beginning on page 224.

Media Literacy People use a variety of media resources for the purpose of getting information. Sometimes we use media to entertain us and sometimes we use it to give us information. Information can be presented through a variety of media sources, including newspapers, the Internet, radio, video, and television news. We know that the purpose of media is to give information when it includes facts about a topic.

Media Literacy If I want to read about John F. Kennedy, one of the Presidents of the United States, I know that I can find information about him using different kinds of media. I can go online, watch a film, or read a newspaper or magazine article about my topic, President Kennedy. I know that the purpose of the media source is to give information when it presents facts and true information.

Research and Inquiry: Synthesize Sometimes I find a lot of information to answer my questions about a person when he or she was an adult. But I do not find information about when the person was growing up. That’s when I focus on the information that I can find. My time line can begin when the person was about twenty years old or maybe even later when the person was changing history. I look for sources showing the person at the right age in pictures. I also read headings to know what paragraphs are about. A heading is something printed at the top of a text’s chapter or other part.

Text-Based Comprehension: Author’s Purpose Remember that an author writes about a topic for a reason. Authors might write to inform or to entertain readers. What do we call the reason an author writes?

Text-Based Comprehension: Author’s Purpose In addition to being very smart, Lincoln was known for his sense of humor. Once, one of Lincoln’s neighbors heard a lot of shouting in the street. He went to his door to see what was causing the racket. He saw Mr. Lincoln standing there with two boys and asked him what was the matter. Lincoln replied, “The same thing that’s the matter with the whole world. I have three walnuts and each one of them wants two of them!” What is the topic of this paragraph? What is the author’s purpose for writing about this topic?

Genre: Poetry Remember that poetry is writing that has carefully chosen words, arranged in lines or verses, that create an image or express thoughts and feelings. The topic of a story, selection, or poem is what the text is about. The main idea is different than the topic. The main idea of a piece of writing is not who or what it’s about, but it is the point or ideas expressed about the topic.

Genre: Poetry The title of the poem on pages 244-245 is “Lincoln,” so I know the topic is Abraham Lincoln. What I don’t know until I continue reading is the main idea of the poem. When I look at the picture, I can see that the picture is of Lincoln as a young man reading by the fire. I will continue to read to find out more about the main idea of the poem. Why did young Lincoln trudge “long weary miles” and make a fire? What do you think this poem says about the actions of Abraham Lincoln as a young person? What is the main idea of the poem?
