Day 3 Bell Work: What is a resource? How do you use it ? Agenda: Take Notes on Text Features

Q: What is the season in the Southern Hemisphere? autumn spring summer winter SC8.4.1.b DOK 2

Mathematics Booster Which major had the highest starting salary in 2006? Which major had the lowest starting salary in 2006? Which major had the largest jump in starting salary?

Greek/Latin Greek/Latin Meaning Sentence sci- know nota mark, note, sign centi- one hundred milli- a thousand thesis put, place; a proposition

Objectives I will know (knowledge): how text features are used to make it easier for students to read. I will be able to (skill): identify the five categories of text features

Bell Work Answer Bell Work: What is a resource? How do you use it ?

A: What is the season in the Southern Hemisphere? A. autumn – Incorrect. During autumn, the North and South Pole are not tilted toward or away from the Sun. B. spring – Incorrect. During autumn, the North and South Pole are not tilted toward or away from the Sun. C. summer – Correct. The season would be summer due to the tilt of the Earth’s axis. The Southern Hemisphere is pointing toward the Sun, receiving the most direct sunlight. D. winter – Incorrect. The season in the Northern Hemisphere would be winter due to the tilt of the Earth’s axis. The Northern Hemisphere is pointing away from the Sun, receiving less direct sunlight. SC8.4.1.b DOK 2

Mathematics Booster Chemical Engineering Which major had the highest starting salary in 2006? Chemical Engineering 2) Which major had the lowest starting salary in 2006? liberal Arts 3) Which major had the largest jump in starting salary? Economics/Finance

Learning About Your Resources Think–Write-Round Robin The teacher asks a question and gives think time. (60 seconds BEFORE you can begin writing) Students think and then respond independently in writing. (No talking) Finally, students share their thoughts one at a time around the table (or circle) Continue around the table until the teacher says stop. What is a work of fiction? Nonfiction?

Think-Write-Round Robin: Based on your experiences with books, what are two big differences between fiction and nonfiction books? Give students time to generate ideas in their groups.

Fiction versus Nonfiction Text Narrative: The main purpose of narrative text is to tell a story. Narrative text has beginning, middle and end, characters, plot or conflict, and setting. Usually, narrative texts are written from the author's imagination. Non-fiction Expository: The main purpose of *expository text is to inform or describe. Authors who write expository texts research the topic to gain information. The information is organized in a logical and interesting manner using various expository text structures. *expository: to put forth, or explain

Why Text Features Are Important Build on background knowledge Make stronger predictions Focus on the main topic Presents new material in meaningful chunks Understand new words Look up information in an efficient way

Five Categories of Text Features 1. Text Divisions 2. Organizational Tools 3. Graphics 4. Font Size or Formatting 5. Layout

Category Description Example Text Divisions Organizational Tools Graphics Font Size or Formatting Layout Identify how the text is organized and presented Chapters Help readers understand key topics or information Table of Contents Visual representations that help the reader understand the main text better Diagram This is printed on the Text Features Activity for students to work on with a partner. Any change in font that signals the reader that this is important Boldface Include aids that point readers to important information Insets

Bullets Colored Print Title Labels Summaries Captions Photographs Pronunciation Guide Subheadings Illustrations Cutaways Timelines References Glossary Diagrams Introductions Charts Tables Index Headings Graphs Italics Maps Insets Author’s Information Sidebar How would you organize this list of text features found in your textbook? Each person will get a slip with a text feature example on it. They will then move around the room to determine what heading the example on their slip goes under. They will write their feature under that heading and stay with that group You will need to have 5 smaller sized white boards with the one text feature heading on each and a marker for each one OR 5 large sheets of paper with one text feature heading on each and a marker for each one. Give the students 3 to 5 minutes to place their examples under the correct heading. Go through each list and discuss student answers at the end of the time. Have students finish filling out their grid of notes. The correct answers are on the next slide.

Category Description Example 1. Text Divisions Identify how the text is organized and presented Chapters, sections, introductions, summaries, and author information 2. Organizational Tools Help readers understand key topics or information Titles, table of contents, index, headings and subheadings, glossary, pronunciation guide, and references 3. Graphics Visual representations that help the reader understand the main text better Diagrams, charts and tables, graphs, maps, labels, photographs, illustrations, paintings, cutaways, timelines captions 4. Font Size or Formatting Any change in font that signals the reader that this is important Boldface, italic 5. Layout Include aids that point readers to important information Insets, sidebar, bullets, and numbers Key to review with students – have volunteers share what they identified for each category.

From the text List the Five Categories of Text Features on the back of your grid notes and identify at least one example from the text for each category. Make sure to include a page number.

Now that you are more familiar with the TEXT FEATURES of your textbook, complete the Text Features Activity for Section 2.3. Students can be work with a partner to complete this activity.
