GENRE: POEM
• Poems often express thoughts and emotions.
Poets use imagery, or specific words that help
readers picture the thoughts and emotions being
described.
• Many poems are organized in stanzas made up of
separate lines of text.
• Rhyme and rhythm are features of some poems.
Rhyming words end with the same sounds. The
rhythm is the beat, or pattern, of stressed and
unstressed syllables.

meanings. For example, small is an antonym for
gigantic. Readers can sometimes find a familiar
antonym near an unfamiliar word to help them
figure out the meaning of the unfamiliar word.

Communities
Main Idea and Details
What is it?
• The main idea is what a paragraph or section is mostly
about. The main idea is often stated in a topic sentence
at the beginning of a paragraph or a passage.
• Sentences in a paragraph or section that give
information related to the main idea are called
supporting details. Most sentences in a paragraph
support, or tell about, the main idea. Some of the
sentences may not support the main idea.
Communities
Main Idea and Details
• Why Is It Important?
• Recognizing the main idea of a passage or

important ideas in a text so they can
summarize it.

Wednesday – Fluency
• Let’s practice chunking words into phrases.
For much of its history, California has attracted
Chinese immigrants. Life was often hard for these
newcomers. But thanks to their skills and hard work,
Chinese immigrants made their mark here.
The discover of gold in 1848 sparked a large wave of
immigration. Nearly 500,000 people from around the
world rushed to California with dreams of becoming
rich. Among the people looking for gold were people
from China. By 1851, there were 25,000 Chinese
people living in California.
Research and Study Skill
• Nonfiction books have special parts at the beginning and
end that can help a reader find information quickly.
• Let’s use your science or social studies books to find the
following:
• Each book has a title that tells what it is about that appears
on the book’s cover. The title page inside the book shows
the book’s title, the author’s name, and sometimes an
illustrator’s name.
• A book’s table of contents lists chapter titles, other book
parts, and their page numbers. Some books begin with a
preface, or short introduction.
• Chapter titles, or chapter headings, tell the reader the
chapter’s topic.
Research and Study Skills
• Headings or subheadings in a chapter tell what each section of a
chapter is about. Headings and subheadings are usually printed in
bold or colored type that is larger than the rest of the text.
• The glossary appears at the end of the book. A glossary lists
important words and terms that appear in the book, shows how to
pronounce them, and gives a definition for each. A glossary is
arranged in alphabetical order.
• The index appears at the back of the book. It lists all the topics
covered in alphabetical order and gives all the page numbers where
information about that topic appears . The index includes topics,
names, places, and events, and the page numbers where they are
found.
• To find information, readers can identify key words and then use
the table of contents and the index to find topics related to those
key words. They can also scan chapter titles and headings.

Wednesday - Writing
• As you revise your journal entry today be sure to
include all of the characteristics of an expository
description. You will be rereading your work
continually to make sure that you are providing your
reader with enough information about the subject (the
person, setting, or object you are writing about).
• Yesterday you added more showing using your sense of
sight. Today, I want them to use your sense of sound to
add more showing to your work. Think again about the
classroom. This is a place, but there are people and
objects that make up this place, too. How does our
classroom sound?
Wednesday Writing
• 1. Reread your journal entry.
• 2. Find a place where you think you could add
more detail using your sense of sound.
• 3. Underline that sentence.
• 4. At the bottom of the page, write at least
two more sentences.

Author and Me
• To answer some test questions, you may need to
combine information the author has provided with
your own knowledge. This approach to test-taking is
called the Author and Me strategy.
• Answers are not always directly stated in the text.
• Authors provide clues that can help you answer a text
question.
• Combine your own knowledge with what the author
has provided to help you figure out the answer.
Reading/Writing Connection
• Often when taking a test, you will be asked to
write to a prompt. A prompt introduces or gives
information about a writing topic, and then
provides instructions about a specific writing
assignment related to the information. Most
prompts will fall under two types of writing or
writing modes:
– expository prompts, which ask the writer to explain
something, or
– narrative prompts, which ask the writer to tell a story.
Reading/Writing Connection
• Before you begin to write to a prompt, you
need to find the following information:
– What is the mode, or type, of writing? Is the
prompt expository or narrative?
– What is the purpose for writing? What is the
actual assignment?
– Does the prompt call for a specific form or
format?
Reading/Writing Connection
• Read the prompt above the student model on
page 220. Bring your attention to the
information in the bubbles.
• Determine the Purpose
– What part of the prompt tells you the purpose for
writing? Look at the second and third sentences.
The second sentence tells students to think about
the topic.
Friday Opening
