My Rows and Piles of Coins Day 5 Author: Tololwa M. Mollel Illustrator: K.B. Lewis Genre: Realistic Fiction Skill: Character and Setting, Story Structure

Question of the week: How could working teach you about money?

Selling Food

A single penny does not jingle in my pocket, but two would make a single jingle and would do. And three would be a real tympani

We’re having a bake sale, we’re having a cake sale. We’re selling you candy and magnets and bows. We’re raffling chances on moonlight romances And TVs and CDs and school-logo clothes. We’re walking for new bats, we’re jogging for gym mats. We’re selling subscriptions to buy uniforms. The art room needs paint sets, the band needs new clarinets. (Please use a pen on the triplicate forms.) We’ll wash your Toyota to fill up our quota, We’ll clean up your dog or your kids or your yard. We’d like to be learning, instead we are earning. (We gladly take checks and all credit cards.)

Workers earn it, Spendthrifts burn it, Bankers lend it, Shoppers spend it, Forgers fake it, Taxes take it, Dying leave it, Heirs receive it, Thrifty save it, Misers crave it, Robbers seize it, Rich increase it, Gamblers lose it... I could use it.

Coins are pleasant To the hand: Neat circles, smooth, A little heavy. They feel as if They are worth something.

Small Groups We will reread our leveled readers

REVIEW CHARACTER TRAITS Readers learn about characters by thinking about what they do, say, and think and how they interact with other characters. Readers infer character traits by thinking about these clues and their own experiences. Events in a story often cause a character to change in a significant way, such as in attitudes or beliefs. Always read to see if this happens to the main character.

Simile A simile is a comparison of two unlike things that are alike in some way. A simile uses like or as ("her eyes shone like diamonds") or a comparative adjective and than ("Jay was happier than the sunniest day").  Look for the clue words like, as, or than.  A simile should not be taken literally; it is a figure of speech used to show a comparison. Work with students to identify the simile on p. 125, paragraph 3. Have students write what it shows about Saruni.

Grammar Day 5 Objectives: Define and identify compound sentences. Use compound sentences correctly in writing. Become familiar with compound sentence identification assessment on high-stakes tests.

9. Tom made a choyce and he was happy with it. - Tom made a choice, and he was happy with it. 10. Toyes and games is expensive. - Toys and games are expensive.

A compound sentence contains two sentences joined by a comma and a word such as and, but, or or. The two sentences that are joined make sense together.

Spelling Day 5 Test Day!

Great work!
