Reflecting
Student Book page 123: Remind students that to
reflect
means to think something
over. Read the prompt aloud. Remind students of the discussions throughout the
reading about cause and effect and sequence. Read the questions aloud to the
class, and have them write their responses in note form. Have them include these
notes in their writing. Remind students to use an introduction sentence and a
conclusion sentence. You may model a sample response.
Practice Tactics
Have students open their Practice Book to page 47. Read the directions aloud
and have students read along with you. Explain the directions and model the activity.
Then, have students complete the page as independent class work or homework.
