Let ’s Celebrate !
ORAL LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT
Display students’ completed writing project in the classroom. Give students time
to read their work aloud to the group as an oral presentation. If time permits,
encourage students to ask questions about each other’s writing process. Give
students an additional opportunity to practice cursive writing and to rewrite
if they choose. Then, display students’ projects in a prominent place in the
classroom.
Practice Tactics
Have students open their Practice Book to the Unit Review pages 58–60.
Read the directions aloud and have students read along with you. Explain the
directions and model the activities. Then, have students complete the pages as
independent class work or homework.
Mind Addition
Divide the class into groups. Tell the
groups that you are going to say a math
calculation that they must solve without
writing anything down. Groups members
may briefly discuss their answer before
responding. Challenge the groups to be the
first to respond. A sample calculation to say
is as follows:
4 + 5 4 + 2 5 + 4 5 = (1)

Also in this unit, we learned how editorials are used to express an

a word, change the wordÕs meaning. Other groups of lettes, called
