- Each partner gets a page protector and a copy of the poem to read.
- Each pair gets one eraser and one white-board marker.
- Put the poem into the page protector.
- With a classmate you will take turns reading the passage.
- You will be timed for one minute.
- Your partner will follow along and mark any errors and mark where you ended.
- Notice how far you read. Figure out how many words you read, then subtract any errors.
- Write it down.
MAKE SURE YOU FILL OUT THE DATE, PASSAGE NUMBER OR LETTERS, AND WORDS PER MINUTE EACH TIME YOU HAVE HAD A TURN TO DO A TIMED READING.
Fill out a column on your graph for each time you read.
Read your new passage today.
The passage number is in the upper right hand corner.

| What during reading strategy is this little boy using? |
Make Predictions
Words you need to know:
prediction: about what is to come
inference: about what is (reading between the lines, What is the author saying without directly stating it?)
This is the prediction cycle:
1) predict2) read
3) check (to see whether you were right)
4) compliment (yourself on getting it right) or correct (your thinking using the new information).
Storytime -- You will receive a sheet of plain paper. Fold it in half. On each half you will draw something as you are directed to. Write your name somewhere on that paper.
Predicting Practice --
Label your first half sheet -- #1 "The Goblin Book"
The title of the first story is titled "The Goblin Book."
What do you think might happen in this story?
Label your second half sheet -- #2 --
Predicting Practice -- How could these words be related to each other in a story?
How about these? How could these words be related to each other in a story?
bed spider mother kill sheets book |
Draw a picture that expresses how you feel about spiders.
Think about experiences you have had with spiders.
Listen to the story.
Skittering (If you are absent, read the story here.)
prediction: about what is to come
inference: about what is
Words you need to know:
Imply = to suggest
Infer = to conclude
Just for fun:
Making Inferences is very similar to Making Connections and Making Predictions. In fact, predictions are a type of inference. When you make inferences, you use clues from the text, memories, facts, experiences, and more to "read between the lines". You're not just looking forward to guess what will happen next, but you're looking at the whole text!
We will use an acronym to help us remember the important parts of making an inference. KIC
- Key details/words --- clues from the text +
- what I already knew. . . ..
- Combine them to come up with an inference
Let's make some inferences about this picture. Pick a detail, infer something, and explain why that detail supports your inference.
- What can you infer about the man on the right? What details support your inference? Why?
- What can you infer about the man on the left? What details support your inference? Why?
Making inferences is a life skill, not just a reading skill! You make inferences all the time as you meet new people, decide if a movie is going to be good or not, or try to figure out what happened to that thing that you lost.
Examples:
A character has a diaper in her hand, spit-up on her shirt, and a bottle warming on the counter. You can infer that this character is a _________________.
A character has a briefcase, is taking a ride on an airplane, and is late for a meeting. You can infer that this character is a ____________________.
A character uses words like "stat" and "emergency" and "prep" and "operation." You can infer that this person works in the ____________________.
A detective enters the house, which has been ransacked. He sees blood on the floor, and it leads out the back door. You can infer that ____________________.
When you enter a house, you see backpacks by the door, small shoes scattered near them. You see an art easel, and a room with a doll house and a toy box. You can infer that there are __________________________.
Your friend walks past you without smiling. Her head is hanging down. She wipes a tear away from her eye, and looks at her report card. You can infer that your friend _______________________________.
You walk into the room and the teacher tells you to clear your desk and get out a piece of paper and a pencil. You can infer that ______________________.
