Study Skills Genre: Modern Fairy Tale Comprehension Skill: Author’s purpose Comprehension Strategy: Story Structure Comprehension Review Skill: Sequence Vocabulary: Context clues

Genre: Modern Fairy Tales In modern fairy tales the characters and events are magical. Modern fairy tales are set in modern or present day times . Modern fairy tales are similar to regular fairy tales but are set in the present.

Summary On the windy prairies of the Southwest, Reba Jo meets a horned toad who makes a deal with her. When Reba Jo doesn’t hold up to her end of the bargain, the horned toad is offended and asks for a simple kiss. That kiss unlocks a magical spell and the ugly toad becomes a prince!

Comprehension Skill Author’s Purpose is the author’s reason or reasons for writing this story. Authors don’t usually tell you this. You have to figure the reasons out. It might be to inform or teach, to entertain, to express their feelings, and to persuade or convince you.

Comprehension Review Skill Sequence Sequence is the order of the events that occur in a story. You can determine the order of events by clue words such as first and next, in the beginning, then, following, after, and finally. Some story events may occur at the same time. Other clue words to indicate sequence might be in the beginning, then, following, after, and finally. Other story events, such as flashbacks, are told out of order.

Vocabulary Skill – Context Clues When you see unfamiliar words, use context clues, or words around the unfamiliar word, to figure out its meaning. The context may give a definition or an explanation. Example: Animals that eat other animals are called predators Sometimes a synonym is used as a context clue. Example: Komodo dragons are carnivores, or meat-eaters.

Research/Study Skill – illustration/caption/label An illustration can be a photograph, drawing, or diagram. A caption is the text that tells about the illustration. It is usually found below or next to the illustration. A label is a word or phrase that names part of the illustration.

Research/Study Skill – illustration/caption/label What is the purpose of an illustration? How does and illustration help you better understand the text? How do the captions or labels help you understand the illustrations?

Weekly Fluency Check - Volume of Voice TE 111a You will need to match your voice volume to the size of the room or group you are reading to. Go to page 99 and let’s reread like a toad using a small voice when he speaks and increase our volume when we cries out .
