AGENDA Let’s see what we are doing today! -Review Rule/Expectations. -B.W. Test Talk Tuesday. -Add entry to T.O.C. -Look at Objective. -Answer Essential Questions. -Aligned reading/activity -Discuss H.W. -Ticket out the door: P.O.F.

OBJ.: I CAN... MAKE PREDICTIONS using text features - titles, graphics, key words, topic sentences and prior knowledge (what I already know) Sub objectives:  - I understand what graphics are.  -I will be able to know what prior knowledge is and be able to activate it.  -I can make inferences. Topic: Text Prediction Notes

OBJ.: 9/10/13 TOPIC: TEXT PREDICTION NOTES ________________________ Questions:Notes: Essential Questions: 1-3 Summary: What’s a possible question? What are the essential questions of our lesson?

THINK BACK TO WHEN WE STARTED OUR “MAKING TEXT PREDICTIONS UNIT”... ASSESSMENT TO GUIDE OUR LESSON, ANSWER THESE ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS BELOW: 1. WHAT ARE TEXT FEATURES? 2. WHAT IS PRIOR KNOWLEDGE? 3. HOW ARE TEXT FEATURES AND PRIOR KNOWLEDGE USED TO PREDICT TEXT CONTENT? Anticipatory Set: allowing the students to activate their prior knowledge in order to set the pace and guide the lesson.

. LET’S GO OVER THE ANSWERS! THIS WILL ALLOW YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL TO IDENTIFY YOUR POINTS OF CONFUSION THUS FAR… FOR QUESTIONS 1 AND 2 YOU SHOULD HAVE FOUND THE ANSWERS IN YOUR… -glossary, your “8 th grade lexicon (dictionary)” that we are building! Question 3: Let’s increase your level of anxiety with some victimizing. Hand sensor time! If my hand senses leadership in you and you are selected you will be ask: Are you able to answer this question fully yet? Be specific, justify your answer: Tell me why or why not? 30 seconds to mentally prepare or freak out!

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO GUESS SOMEONE’S MOOD BY STUDYING THEIR BODY LANGUAGE (PARENT/GUARDIAN/FRIEND/TEACHER)? Activate your prior knowledge and think back to when we discussed this: “I Do” Teacher model. “You Do” You Guess my mood! 1 Mad 2 Sad 3 Nervous

YEAR LONG GOAL: HOW WILL THIS HELP ME? Have you ever had an assignment to read a chapter and answer questions? By making predictions using text features, you are sure to find more accurate answers faster, and complete your assignment in less time! You will use “Prior Knowledge” (what you have already learned in previous lessons/years). Prior Knowledge helps make correct inferences (conclusions/ judgments). We discuss/explore our natural reading skills that we all have so that we can: fine-tune them, become more effective readers and EXCEED on AIMS.

READ THE TITLE The title of an article, expository text or a poem holds many clues. “The Art of Brick” What might this article be about?

USE THE GRAPHICS What does the picture tell me about the possible topics of the article? What is it? What materials? Prior knowledge?

READ THE TOPIC SENTENCES A topic sentence is a sentence that expresses the main idea of the paragraph in which it occurs. Nathan Sawaya, 32, never grew out of his love for Legos. I'm most proud of the fact that I took a dream that I had as a kid, to become a Lego designer, and actually have made a job out of it. To do what you love in life is the most important thing.

DECIDE WHAT YOU KNOW What do I know about the purpose of the article? What do I know about the topic of the article? What prior knowledge do I bring to the table?

READ THE ARTICLE AND TAKE NOTES IN I.N.B. Read the entire article while noting key words used. What were you correct about? What were you incorrect about? Why were you incorrect? Remember to paraphrase, a skill we learned/practiced when learning how to use Cornell notes and when we learned about Context Clues.

KEY WORDS What were the key words used in the article? Were there words used several times? Were there bold words or italicized words? These must be important to the author’s purpose so make a note of them.

SUMMARIZE THE ARTICLE, IN YOUR SUMMARY SECTION. Now that you are aware of the topic and purpose, summarize the article in your own words. 3-4 sentences (shoot for 5, exceed expectations). Remember to include the ideas behind those key words, the title and the graphics.

EXAMPLE: ARTICLE SUMMARY Nathan Sawaya has been building with Legos since he was three years old. He realized his dream of becoming an artist when he won a Lego design contest in his youth. Now he designs anything imaginable out of Legos for private and corporate customers who want a little flair in their offices or homes. Nathan has proven the Lego theory on a whole new level: You really can build anything with Legos.
