Photo Cards that show places in front of the class. Tell
students that they just created a cityscape using perspective to make some objects
appear closer and others farther. Have students look up the word
perspective
in
the dictionary. Ask students to discuss their painting in small groups. Have them
identify the perspective in each other’s paintings. Then, have them discuss the
qualities that make the painting a cityscape.
Practice Tactics
Have students open their Practice Book to page 57. 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.
Home Connection
Write the Key Vocabulary on the board randomly for students to alphabetize.
Distribute Blackline Masters 2a and 2b. If necessary, review with students
how to fold the sheet to create a booklet. Provide more folded sheets if
necessary. Ask students to complete the first page by writing their names,
date, My Dictionary, and subject area. Have them write the words on the
remaining pages in a column. Next, ask students to use their own words to
write definitions for each word. Have them check their work by looking up
the correct definitions in their dictionaries. Explain that they should read their
definitions to their parents or guardians. Remind them to return their booklets
to school. Retain them for future use.
