GENRE Teacher Read Aloud

Let’s take a look at our story for the week.

How Animals Communicate

This story is an informational text. An informational text gives facts about a topic. As I read, look for:

Information and facts in the words

Photos that show the real world

How do you know a story is an informational text ?

Teacher Read AloudTeacher Read Aloud:

Track the print as I read

Listen for the vocabulary words as I read. Think about how the author uses them in the story.

animal how some make why how

Also, look for information and facts in the words and photos that show the real world.

Teacher Read Aloud- ReflectionsThink about the story that I read. What information or facts from the story did you see or hear? What photos did you see that were real? Discuss with your group.

What ways did the animals communicate? Discuss with your partner.

In your groups, come up with a different form of communication that your group would like to use. Remember, everyone has to agree. Monitors make sure that the noise level is low as you create the way to communicate. I will walk around and facilitate each group.

Phonics Last week we worked with short a words.

This week we will review short i words. We will also work with blends with r this week as well as the phonogram –ip.

Short i makes the /i/ sound.

Say /i/ /i/ /i/

-ip makes the sound /ip/ /ip/ say /ip/ /ip/

Let’s think of the –ip word family. How many –ip words can we think of? I will pull sticks to call and write your answers on the board.

Phonics Let’s read some words with short i.

Title: Schools Everywhere

Tuesday: We receive our passage and read it through once. The students write down or highlight “tricky” words. I then read the text aloud once as they follow along. We talk about the words they wrote down and see if we can figure out their meaning using context clues.

Wednesday: We take out our passage and re-read it. I review the vocabulary terms we learned yesterday and students receive the vocabulary sheet to complete. Students circle the words in the passage and we go over it together.

Thursday: We read the passage again and receive the comprehension page. We go through each question together and answer them while highlighting the evidence from the text to support each answer
