What’s it called?
“A Good Play”What’s the purpose of reading
poetry?To enjoy it!
As I read, listen for what the characters are doing.
T299
A Good PlayWe built a ship upon the stairsAll made of the back-bedroom chairs.And filled it full of soft pillowsTo go a-sailing on the billows.
We took a saw and several nails,And water in the nursery pails;And Tom said, ”Let us also takeAn apple and a slice of cake,”---Which was enough for Tom and meTo go a-sailing on, till tea.
We sailed along for days and days,And had the very best of plays;But Tom fell out and hurt his knee,So there was no one left but me.

C-le SyllableRead the following words
bundle little fiddle
What sound do you hear at the end of each word?
The -le sound stand for /әl/ sound. The –le and the consonant before it form a syllable.
Here is how you would divide these words into syllables:
bun-dle lit-tle fid-dle
Whenever there are two consonants before the –le the vowel sound in the first syllable is short.
T384 Review
C-le Syllable
table
maple
beagle
needle
The –le combines with the consonant before it to make a syllable. Write the words in your notebook. Let’s divide these words into syllables together.
When you are finished read the words and decide if the first syllable has a
long or short sound.
All of these words have the long vowel sound.
Let’s look and divide these words into
syllables.
Does the first syllable have a long or short
vowel sound?
apple
eagle
staple
purple
ap-pleshort
ea-glelong
sta-plelong
pur-pleneither- ur
Now you divide these words into syllables.
Does the first syllable have a long or short
vowel sound?

Comprehension Review: Identifying Plot
T 398 Teach/Model
Remember that an important part of a story is the plot.
In many stories, things happen because the characters have a
problem. The sequence of events that help them solve that problem is
the story’s plot.
Open your reading books to pg. 324-325.
As I read think about what is happening in the story. Think about
important events.
T 398 Teach/Model
What was one of the important events?The boy cries “wolf” so people will come, but there is no
wolf.
He has a problem and cries “wolf” but nobody believes him.
What is another important event that happens at the end of
the story?
