DAY
1
Introduce the strategy to students. Then say: When good readers read, they look for the most important information in a passage in order to understand the author’s main message. They do not let themselves get distracted by information that is not related to the main topic. This week we will learn some ways to look for the most important information in a passage. Read the instructions at the top of the page aloud. Say: This is a silly passage about a make-believe animal called a zooraffa. Have students read the passage. When students have finished, ask: What do the numbers in the passage stand for? (numbered directions, or steps, for cleaning a zooraffa) Ask:Do you think the numbers were important for understanding the passage? (yes) Say: Sometimes it is a good idea to read the important information again to make sure you understand it well.Pair students for the strategy practice activity or complete it as a group. Then direct students to complete the skill practice activity. Review the answers together.
DAY
2
Remind students of the strategy. Say: When we determine the important information in a passage, we look for the information that helps us best understand what the author is trying to tell us.Point out the following three features on the page: the body text, the picture, and the caption. Say: Each of these features is important, but we need to know what information from each feature best helps us to understand what we are reading. Brainstorm with students what information each feature probably gives (The body text tells the story of the high jump, the picture shows who the jumpers are, and the caption tells the height of each jump.). Then read the instructions at the top of the page aloud. Have students read the passage. When students have finished, direct them to complete the strategy and skill practice activities. Review the answers together.
DAY
3
Remind students of the strategy. Say: When good readers look for important information in a passage, they often begin by skimming or scanning the text. What stands out when you look at the page? (the headings) Say: When I look at the headings, I know I’ll likely read about where a certain snake lives and how it eats. I can look for information in the passage that tells me more about those topics. Then read the instructions at the top of the page aloud. Have students read the passage. When students have finished, direct them to complete the strategy and skill practice activities. Review the answers together.
DAY
4
Remind students of the strategy. Say: When we read to determine important information, we need a good purpose for reading. Sometimes we can set a purpose by looking at the activities we are asked to do when we finish reading. Read aloud the directions for the strategy practice activity. Then say: When I read, I will look for the information about how peanut butter is made. Read the instructions at the top of the page aloud. Then have students read the passage. When students have finished, direct them to complete the strategy and skill practice activities.
DAY
5
Remind students of the strategy. Say: To determine important information, you need to know what you are reading. What does this page look like? (a page from a dictionary) Why do people use dictionaries? (to find out what words mean) Since this is a dictionary, the important information will likely be the meaning of different words. Read the instructions at the top of the page aloud. Then have students read the dictionary page. When students have finished, direct them to complete the strategy and skill practice activities. Review the answers together.
Determine Important InformationThis strategy allows students to find the most important information in a passage, usually information related to the main idea. By determining the important information, students can increase their comprehension by focusing on important ideas and details.

subject • topicUse the transparency for week 1 and the suggestions on page 6 to introduce the words for each day.
DAY1
subject(noun) An area of study, such as science. Math is Greta’s best subject in school.
Have students name the different things they study in school—math, science, social studies, reading, language arts, health, music, art. Say: Each of these things is a subject you study in school. Invite students to talk about which school subjects they like best. After responses, ask: Why do you like that subject the best? Then have students complete the Day 1 activities on page 11. You may want to do the first one as a group.
DAY2
subject(noun) Someone or something that is thought about, written about, or talked about. Our school picnic was the subject of a newspaper article.
Display informational books that are familiar to students. Select books whose subject is suggested by the title—for example, Exploring the Night Sky or How a House Is Built. As you show each book, ask: What is the subject of this book? What is it about? Help them conclude that what a book is about is the subject of the book. Then have students complete the Day 2 activities on page 11. You may want to do the first one as a group.
DAY3
topic(noun) The subject of discussion or conversation. Abigail always has a lot to say on the topic of dog care.
Explain that topic and “subject” have very similar meanings and are sometimes used interchangeably. Say: Something or someone can be the topic of discussion or the subject of discussion. Ask: What is our topic of discussion right now? Read the sample sentence and ask: Would the sentence have the same meaning if you replaced topic with the word “subject”? Then have students complete the Day 3 activities on page 12. You may want to do the first one as a group.
DAY4
topic(noun) The subject of a book or other written work. He has read many books on the topic of space travel.
Say: Both topic and “subject” are used to describe what a book or another piece of writing is about, as well as a discussion or conversation. Ask a student to make up a sentence using the word topic. Then ask another student to repeat the sentence, substituting the word “subject” for topic. Ask: Are the meanings of the two sentences the same? Then have students complete the Day 4 activities on page 12. You may want to do the first one as a group.
DAY5
Have students complete page 13. Call on students to read aloud their answers to the writing activity.

That means it is clear-cut and exact. Imagine that you
will write a story. Which of these ideas is more specific?
1) autumn; or 2) playing in piles of crunchy, colorful leaves.

autumn) Then guide students through the activities.
• ActivityA:Read aloud John’s story ideas.
Ask: Which idea is more specific? (b) Why? (It is a
specific story about the bear.) Repeat the process
for Brianna’s story ideas, having students choose
an answer. Ask them to explain their choices.
• ActivityB:Read aloud the three ideas. Then use
the first one to model thinking of a more specific
idea. Say: What could you tell about bike riding?

they are specific. Have them choose an idea to
complete the activity.
• ActivityC(Convention): Read the sentences

Why do some plants have flowers?Students at this grade do not need to learn the reproductive parts of a flower (stamen, pistil, and so on), but they will learn that all flowers make seeds and some type of fruit. Flowering plants are the most abundant and diverse plants on Earth. A flower is a plant’s reproductive part, and it appears after the plant has fully matured. Just like animals, plants have a life cycle. Plants grow from seeds and become mature. Most mature plants create flowers. The flowers produce fruit and grow new seeds. New seeds start the cycle again by becoming new plants.
Day OneVocabulary: flower
Materials: flowers or pictures of flowers
Distribute page 27 and introduce the vocabulary word. Then read the introduction aloud with students. Show the flowers or pictures of flowers you brought. Have students describe the flowers. (shape, color, smell, and so on) If needed, review the parts of a plant (roots, stem, leaves, flower) before distributing crayons and having students complete activity A. For activity B, read the question aloud and have students write their answer.
Day TwoVocabulary: pollen
Distribute page 28 and introduce the vocabulary word. Then have volunteers read the introduction aloud. Point out the pictures on the page and ask students if they have ever seen bees or butterflies around flowers before. Then have students complete activity A independently. For activity B, read each question aloud and have students write their answers.
Day ThreeVocabulary: fruit
Distribute page 29 and introduce the vocabulary word. Then have volunteers read the introduction aloud. Point out the chart on the page and help students understand how to read it. Read the name of the first fruit and then ask: Does it have seeds inside it? (yes) Is it a fruit? (yes) Then let’s write yes in the box. Have students finish the activity on their own. For activity B, read each question aloud and have students circle their answers. For the oral activity, pair students or discuss the answers as a group.
Day Four Distribute page 30 and read the introduction aloud with students. Then have students look at the pictures in activity A and complete the activity. When students finish, point out that no matter which step in the cycle you start with, the order stays the same. For activity B, have the class answer as a group after a volunteer reads each statement.
Day Five Tell students they will review everything they have learned about flowers and fruit. Have them complete page 31. Go over the answers together.

The Region of Central AmericaIntroducing the Map
Share with students the definition of a region. Explain that a group of countries can be part of a region. Ask students to name the geographic region that bridges the southern end of North America to South America. The answer is the region of Central America.
Show students the map of Central America. Students should notice that the geographic location of this region gives it its name. However, explain to students that Central America is considered part of the North American continent. Besides its geographic location, Central America is linked to North America in other ways.
• The countries of Central America form a long isthmus that connects southern North America to South America. The Isthmus of Panama is a narrow strip of land that separates the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans in Panama.
• The physical features of the region include many inland, rugged mountains. Many of the mountains are active volcanoes. Devastating earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and hurricanes strike this region.
• Spanish is the official language of all the Central American countries, except Belize. In Belize, English is the official language.
• Most of the people of Central America live in the highlands, where they live on small farms.
• Central America has large plantations that produce about 10 percent of the world’s coffee and about 10 percent of the world’s bananas.
• The Maya Indians were the dominant culture from about 400 B.C. to about A.D. 900. Today, descendants of the Maya live in the mountains of Central America.
All these factors help to group the countries into a region.
Introducing Vocabulary
Central America a region of seven countries between Mexico and South America
isthmus narrow strip of land having water on each side and connecting two larger bodies of land
region area of land or water with certain characteristics that make it different from other areas

Lesson 1 Introducing a Biography
A biography is a true story about a person’s life that gives
important information about the person and describes major
events in the order in which they happened.
1. Tell students that a biography is a type of writing
that describes true and important events from
someone’s life.
2. Have volunteers read aloud the model on p. 56,
paragraph by paragraph.
3. Ask: What is the purpose of this biography? (to tell
about the life of Mary McLeod Bethune) Have students
write the purpose on the lines provided.
4. Invite students to offer opinions about what makes this
a good biography. Prompt students by asking: Does
the writer clearly state who this biography is about
and why this person is important? Does the
biography include facts and details about her life?
Are the events organized in chronological, or time,
order? Then explain that students will use the model
as they practice the skills needed to write a good
biography.
Lesson 2 Including Biographical Details
1. Review the purpose of a biography. Then say: A
biography includes important details, such as the
person’s date of birth, where he or she lived, and his
or her achievements or accomplishments. Have a
volunteer locate the information in “The Life of Mary
McLeod Bethune” that tells where and when she was
born. (She was born in South Carolina in 1875...)
2. Tell students that in order to write a good biography,
they must first do research to gather information
about that person. Have small groups brainstorm
questions they might research, such as: Whom is this
biography about? What is this person known for?
When and where was this person born? What do
you know about this person’s life? What are some of
his or her important accomplishments? When did
he or she die?
3. Point out the encyclopedia entry on p. 57 and read the
first sentence aloud. Tell students they will be using
information from the entry to complete the activity.
Have students finish reading the entry and then
complete the activity independently or in small
groups. Review the answers by asking volunteers to
share their responses.

Jack Roosevelt “Jackie” Robinson (1919–1972) was the �rst African
American to play baseball in the major leagues. Robinson was born in Georgia
in 1919 and grew up being treated differently because of his skin color.
Robinson attended high school in California. He was good at all sports,
especially baseball. But because he was African American, he was not allowed
to play for a major league team. In 1945, Robinson played one season of
baseball in a league just for African Americans. Because of Robinson’s talent,
the Brooklyn Dodgers changed the rules and hired him in 1947. That year, he
was named Rookie of the Year.
In 1962, Robinson became the �rst African American to be named to the
Baseball Hall of Fame. He died in 1972 in Connecticut.

The Life of Mary McLeod Bethune
Mary McLeod Bethune was a teacher and a leader who
helped change people’s views about education. She knew that
education was important for everyone. She believed it was the
key to a better life. That’s why she worked hard to make sure all
people could go to school.
Education was important to Mary at an early age. She was
born in South Carolina in 1875 to parents who had been slaves.
During this time, it was unusual for African American children to
go to school. But Mary loved learning so much that she walked
five miles every day just to get to school. Mary was a good
student, so her teacher helped her attend college. Mary finished
college in 1893 and later became a teacher.
As an adult, Mary helped others get an education. She
created schools for African American children. Mary also helped
educate women and children. Mary was even friends with
Franklin D. Roosevelt, America’s president from 1933 to 1945.
She talked to him often about equal education for everyone.
Mary McLeod Bethune died in Florida in 1955. Newspapers

WEEK
15Concept
Earth has four seasons.
Four SeasonsScience Objective:To help students understand that changes in weather occur from day to day and across seasons, affecting Earth and its people
Science Vocabulary:fall, pattern, seasons, spring, summer, winter
Day 1SKILLS
Introducing the ConceptBegin by activating students’ prior knowledge about the seasons. Ask:
• Do we have the same weather every day? (no) How does the weather change? (It may be sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, hot, warm, cold, etc.)
• We have four seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter. The weather often changes from season to season. What is the weather like in summer? fall? winter? spring? (students respond)
Then introduce students to the concept of the patterns of the seasons. Say: Our Earth is like a big ball that moves around the sun. As Earth moves, the seasons change from spring to summer to fall to winter.
Listening to the StoryDistribute the Day 1 activity page to each student. Say: Listen and look at the picture as I read a story about the pattern of the seasons.
In spring, the tree outside Ava’s window has tiny, new green leaves. She hears baby birds chirping in their nest. Summer comes after spring. Now the tree has big, green leaves. Ava doesn’t have school, so she sits in the shade of the tree and reads a book. Fall comes after summer. The leaves on the tree turn yellow, orange, and red before they fall to the ground. After school, Ava rakes up the leaves. Finally, winter comes. The branches of the tree are bare. One morning, Ava wakes up to see white snow covering everything! Ava likes the snow. But she knows that one day it will melt, spring will come, and the pattern will start all over again!
Confirming UnderstandingDistribute crayons. Reinforce the science concept by asking questions about the story. Ask:
• What does the tree have in spring? (new green leaves) Circle some of the leaves.
• What does the tree have in summer? (big green leaves) Color the tree’s leaves.
• What does the tree have in fall? (yellow, orange, red leaves) Color the leaves on the ground red.
• In winter, the tree is bare. Circle the bare branches in black.
Earth Science• Understand that the
seasons change in a pattern
• Understand that there are different kinds of weather
LiteracyOral Language Development
• Respond orally to simple questions
Comprehension
• Make connections using illustrations, prior knowledge, or real-life experiences
• Answer questions about key details in a text read aloud
• Make inferences and draw conclusions

What I LearnedWhat to DoHave your child look at the pictures below. Ask him or her to point to the pictures in order and name the seasons: spring, summer, fall, winter. Ask: Which season are we in now? Which season do you like the most? Have your child tell you an activity he or she likes to do during each of the four seasons.
Science Concept: Earth has four seasons.
To ParentsThis week your child learned that the Earth has four seasons.
