Climate and architecture are connected because
the climate helps to determine the type of
architecture that will evolve.

Response Logs
  • reflecting on content
  • encourage the use of evidence
  • and examples that build meaning
  • and limit irrelevant responses

15
Connecting Through Journal Topics
Explain how _________(topic of the day) plays a
part in your life. Write a sentence telling how
knowing about ________(new topic) might be useful
to you personally. How do you think your
feelings about ________(new topic) is different
from your teachers (or friends or parents)?
16
Book Bits
  • Give each student a short excerpt from a piece of
    text that everyone will be reading.
  • Each child reads his/her excerpt silently.
  • Each child then writes a prediction/questions
    about the entire article.
  • Students are placed in groups of 3-4 to share
    excerpts with other students. Each child reads
    to and listens to 2-3 other students. They must
    read their excerpts exactly as written.
  • Students now return to their seats to make new
    predictions or ask questions concerning the text
    they will read.

Anticipation Guides
Me Text
Mosquitoes eat plant nectar and pollinate plants.
Mosquitoes make great food for fish.
Honeydew is a favorite food of the male mosquito.
The larvae do not breed successfully in water
that has fish or frogs.
Mosquitoes are the most dangerous Animal in the
world.
18
Asking Questions
  • I Wonder
  • QAR (Text or Art)
  • Question Trackers
  • Hot Lists

19
  1. I wonder...
  2. what horses eat?
  3. where horses live?
  4. how horses help people?

Question/Answer Relationship (QAR)
  • IN MY HEAD
  • Author and You answer not in text must think
    about what is known, what text is saying and how
    it fits together (inferring)
  • IN THE BOOK
  • Right There answer in text,
    easy to find words used in question and used in
    answer are in same sentence
  • Think and Search
  • words and answers
  • come from different
  • parts of text (or
  • books)
  • On My Own
  • using experiences (schema) to answer
    question

21
QAR and Art
  • Look at a picture
  • Write 4 questions about the picture you should
    have one question for each of the four types of
    QAR Right There Think and Search Author
    and You On your Own

Readers Theatre
  1. Teacher read the text on which script is based
    and did lessons on fluency.
  2. Day 2-3 students met in small groups and read the
    script several times taking a different role
    with each reading.
  3. Day 4 students practice their roles
  4. Day 5 students perform

Drawing Inferences
  • Poetry Reconstruction
  • Concept Circles
  • Mystery Bubbles
  • Fact/Inference T Chart
  • Inferring from Lists of Related Facts

51
Poetry Reconstruction
  • Record a poem on sentence strips
  • Record the same poem on stiff paper for students
  • Cut the poem into phrases
  • Distribute strips randomly to students
  • Students work in teams to reconstruct the poem
  • Check their work against poem in pocket chart
  • Activity Seed, Sprout, Flower reconstruction

52
Seed, Sprout, Flowerby Helen H. Moore
  • A seed is planted
  • First a sprout,
  • then stem,
  • and leaves,
  • and buds
  • come out.
  • Buds grow bigger,
  • smelling sweet,
  • bees and birds come
  • round to eat.
  • Bees and birds
  • help flowers spread
  • their new seeds on
  • the garden bed . .
  • A seed is planted.

53
Concept Circles
  1. View a completed circle and name the concept
  2. Provide a concept and one word/picture add
    other words/pictures that fit
  3. Identify the word or picture that does not belong

54
Concept CircleWhat concepts are represented?

57
Mystery Bubbles
  • Select key concepts
  • Provide one clue related to the concept
  • Provide a list of vocabulary words including
    the concept words
  • Students must now complete the mystery bubbles
  • As students develop proficiency you may want to
    eliminate the word list
  • Students complete the bubbles on their own

Making Inferences
Facts
Inferences
Somewhere between AD 1250 and AD 1400 the
Anasazi moved out of San Juan county and
dispersed to larger pueblos scattered throughout
the drainages of the Colorado and Rio Grande
Rivers in Colorado and New Mexico. They left
behind many of their large personal belongings
such as cooking pots and baskets.
  • Water is important to their culture
  • because they always live near a river.
  • They were peaceful because they were
  • accepted by other Pueblo Indians .
  • Because they left behind personal
  • belongings, I can infer they left
  • quickly.

62
What can we infer?
Cows have four stomachs. They eat grass
Rabbits eat their droppings. Rabbits eat grass.
What can we infer about grass?
Ostriches have long nails.
The starfish stomach goes out of its body and
into the shellfish
The cheeta has a spotted coat.
Frogs pushes their stomach out of their body when
if it eats something bad.
Animal features
Considering all of the facts about animal
features, what can we infer?

Student-Produced Readers Theatre
  1. In teams review texts and notes to create script.
  2. Small groups meet and read the script several
    times taking a different role with each
