1 September 8-12 Unit 1A Lesson 1 Lesson 2 Lesson 3 Direct Instruction/Intervention and Enrichment Activities Finding Main Idea and Details What is the Gist? Suggestions for Standards-Based Instruction To help students succeed with questions measuring RI.4.1, instruction can focus on building students capacity to understand grade-level complex texts and using details from the text to articulate thoughts about it. Additionally, ask students to make inferences based on details and examples provided and practice supporting their inferences by quoting the details or examples in the text. To help students succeed with questions that measure RI.4.3 in this way, instruction should focus on building students capacity to comprehend grade-level complex texts and using evidence to discuss and write about the ideas, concepts, and events presented within an informational piece. Students can also practice this skill by explaining the development of events across the course of a story and why these events took place or by explaining how concepts and ideas develop throughout a text. Additional Activities Informational Text T-Chart. Create a T-chart and on the left record text information that helps a student learn about a topic or concept. On the right record the student s answers to the following critical thinking questions. Refer to text to support reasoning. What is the most important information and why? What are the most important facts? Why did the author want the reader to learn these?

Additionally, ask students to make inferences based on the details and examples provided and practice supporting their inferences by quoting the details or examples in the text. Additional Activities The 5 W s and H. (Who, What, Where, When, Why and How) Questions are created by journalists to find the main ideas of a story or concept that they will cover. Have students commit these questions to memory so they can be recalled readily for structuring questions. After reading a selected text, students answer the 5 W s and H questions or differentiate by having students create questions before reading and answering them after reading. Refer to text to support reasoning. *if you do not have the technology to facilitate the PowerPoint portion of the lesson feel free to substitute with a vocabulary game or activity* Lesson 4A: (RI.4.1)(SL.4.1) (RI.4.7) Begin with Work Time (omit Opening) Worktime A and B Small Group Instruction Ready NY CCLS Lesson: Lesson 2: Understanding Historical Texts Lesson 4B: (RI.4.1)(SL.4.1) (RI.4.7) Worktime C and D Small Group Instruction Ready NY CCLS Lesson: Lesson 1: Finding Main Ideas and Details Lesson 5: (RL.4.11)(SL.4.2)(SL.4.1) Maintain Lesson Integrity Small Group Instruction Ready NY CCLS Lesson: Lesson 1: Finding Main Ideas and Details Lesson 2: Understanding Historical Texts Lesson 6: **Assessment** (RI.4.1) (RI.4.2)(SL.4.1) Maintain Lesson Integrity

5 September Unit1A: Lesson 7 Lesson 8 Lesson 9 Theme Direct Instruction/Intervention and Enrichment Suggestions for Standards-Based Instruction Activities Initial instruction can focus on building students capacity to comprehend grade-level complex texts, determining themes found in a grade-level text and then asking the students to analyze how the story contains specific details that support that theme. Follow up activities can require students to analyze support for a theme without asking for the theme to be articulated. To help students succeed with questions like this, instruction can focus on building students capacity to comprehend grade-level complex texts and teaching students to summarize a text using details from its entirety and then determine a statement of theme that can be supported by that summary. Additional Activities Categorizing. Create a three-column chart. Label each column with a literary form (i.e., poetry, drama, prose). Have students brainstorm the structural elements that are common to each. Encourage students to provide examples of each genre from their own reading to include on the chart. Post the chart and revisit it throughout the year to add or refine elements or to add other examples. Have students use the chart to classify pieces of literature that they read independently. The chart also can be used as a guide for setting up and running a student-led classroom library that is organized by genre. (Gill, 2007) Lesson 7A: (RL.4.2) (RL.4.5)(SL.4.1) Opening Worktime A Worktime B Worktime C (Worktime C can be done in leveled reading groups.

Next, they read a piece of literature on a similar topic. Finally they create a T-chart with the title of the poem on one side and the title of the literature on the other and list differences between the 2 formats. Students are evaluated on their ability to refer to the structural components of a drama and their ability to explain the major differences between the 2 pieces.

Teachers may need to extend this portion of the lesson for students or continue instruction in small groups Complete Worktime B and C.. Complete Worktime D and E. It is optional to complete these tasks independently or in small groups.

9 Additional Activities QAR. QAR is a cognitive strategy that can also be applied to traditional text in an anthology or a chapter in a textbook in other content areas. This strategy is especially useful when students are asked to read something and answer questions about it (Raphael and Au, Teachers model the four types of questions: Right There, Think and Search, Author and Me, and On My Own). Right There --Pose a question to the class that may be answered by looking in one location in the text. Ask students how they figured out the answer to the question Think and Search --Ask a question that may be answered by looking in more than one location of the text. Author and Me--Pose a question that requires reading the text and using knowledge that is in your head. On My Own--Ask a related question that can be answered without having to read the text. These are usually higher level critical thinking questions. Prove it! This strategy suggests that students read a page selected by the teacher. The teacher then selects an idea from the page and students locate one or two statements of evidence from the text which support the statement. An adaptation is to provide small groups with four or five main ideas from the same text. It is the small group s responsibility to determine that these statements are main ideas. The students then locate one or two statements of evidence from the text which support these main ideas. Once students finish finding proof. Lesson 3: (RI.4.1)(RI.4.1)(RI.4.2)(W.4.8) Work Time A,B, C, and D: Completed in Guided Reading Groups (At this point students should be familiar with find thing gist and main idea of texts.

Small group instruction Initial instruction can focus on building students capacity to comprehend grade-level complex texts, determining themes found in a grade-level text and then asking the students to analyze how the story contains specific details that support that theme. Follow up activities can require students to analyze support for a theme without asking for the theme to be articulated. Instruction can focus on building students capacity to comprehend grade-level complex texts and teaching students to summarize a text using details from its entirety and then determine a statement of theme that can be supported by that summary To help students succeed with questions that measure RI.4.9 in this way, instruction should focus on building students capacity to comprehend grade-level complex texts and using evidence to incorporate the ideas and concepts presented. Students can also practice this skill by explaining, in speech or in writing, the development of details across the course of more than one text and how these details pertain to details in other texts. Students can also describe how different texts that approach the same topic compare in their textual details.

18 Theme Hunt. A theme is a story s message. It is what the author of a piece of text wants the reader to remember most. The theme of a fable is the moral. The theme of a parable is the teaching. The theme of a piece of fiction is the view about life and how people behave. A good place to start when learning how to identify theme is to look at Aesop s Fables. In fables, students can identify the theme of the text right away, because the author explains it to the reader. Students read several versions of fables and summarize the theme in each story. Collect poems that represent various themes, making sure there are several poems for each theme, and have students categorize them in a station or center. (Lesesne, 2000) Comic Book Summary. Students read an assigned story. They use key details from the text to determine the theme of the story and create a 6 8 panel comic book summary of the story. Students are evaluated on their use of key details to summarize the story and its theme.
