2 WATER FOR LIFE

3 Learning Target I will name 4 kinds of natural resources and use a mind map to describe how we use these resources in our lives.

4 CONNECT Look at pg. 62. The title is: Life-Giving Water The artist is: Alfredo Arreguin He’s famous for his carefully patterned paintings of the environment. Think about the painting and listen as I read aloud an article about Pacific salmon.

5 ACADEMIC VOCABULARY RESOURCE: something, such as water, that people need and use. In the article, we learned that rivers are an important natural resource. What are some other natural resources? How do we use them in our lives? Which do you think is the most important?

6 ACADEMIC VOCABULARY Resources ~ rivers, soil, sunshine, trees, lakes. How do you use natural resources? Which natural resource do you consider to be most important? (think-pair-share) Why is it important not to waste resources?

7 WATER FOR LIFE Natural Resource: A natural resource is something in nature that we use. What resource would you use to make a table? What resources do we use for food? Why is it important to use resources wisely?

8 SYNTHESIZE IDEAS ANIMALS WATER: drink, wash cook fish RESOURCES ROCKS PLANTS ___________ is a natural resource. We use it to _________.

9 SYNTHESIZE IDEAS Now turn to pg. 28 in your Practice Workbook. Fill in the mind map to show different kinds of resources (on the previous slide, water was done for you). Under “Academic Vocabulary” you’ll need TWO sentences to complete this activity.

10 Exit ticket On a sticky note: 1) write your name 2) give me an example of a natural resource 3) tell me how it is used

11 Learning Target I can recognize fiction and non-fiction text and describe how they differ (how they are different).

12 GENRE FICTION VS. NONFICTION FICTION: Tells a made-up story with events that form a plot; written to entertain the reader. Fiction has characters and dialogue. NON-FICTION: Gives you information and facts that can be proved; written to inform or explain. Gives information on a TOPIC. What is your favorite type of genre of book to read? Fiction or non- fiction? Turn to page 64 in your textbooks. We’ll read it together.

13 Vocabulary Routine 1 Open up your writer’s notebook and we’ll create a word web for the word “topic”: Topic: (noun) A topic is the subject of a piece of writing or a discussion I read a lot of books on the topic of teaching. The topic of the conversation was the cold weather. The topic of this magazine is science. What topic do you most like to read about?

14 FICTION VS. NONFICTION Turn to page 65 (choral reading). As we read, listen for clues as to whether the book is fiction or non-fiction. So what do we look for to determine whether we are reading fiction or non fiction? Now turn to page 29 in your Practice Workbooks. Follow the directions for Parts A & B. For Part C, you will need TWO or more sentences to complete.

15 Exit ticket Tell your partner the difference between fiction and non-fiction.

16 Learning Target I can describe what a synonym is and provide synonyms for different words. I can create a synonym scale to order synonyms. I can use a mind map to describe the meaning of the word “category”.

17 VOCABULARY Which of these sounds worse? “When the doctor gave me a shot, the pain was bad” or “When the doctor gave me a shot, the pain was terrible”? Bad and terrible are very close in meaning (SYNONYMS), but terrible might create a stronger feeling.

18 SYNONYMS SYNONYMS ~ words that have nearly the same meaning. Hungry: starving, famished Great: excellent, fabulous Big: enormous, gigantic REMEMBER: It is important to know the exact meaning of synonyms. It will help you understand what you read. Turn to page 66 in your books.

19 ACADEMIC VOCABULARY CATEGORY: a group of items that are related in some way. Pull out your writer’s notebook and let’s create a mind map for the word category: What it means: A group of related items CATEGORY Non- example: sad Example: sports

20 ACADEMIC VOCABULARY Look at page 67 in your books. Read River Fish aloud with a partner. Look at the underlined words and put them in order from slowest to quickest. Let’s start with ‘moved’ swam paddled glided zoomed From what we’ve written on this scale, which animal is the quickest? Tiny fish are the quickest.

21 ACADEMIC VOCABULARY Create a synonym scale for the underlined words: stands still rushes stands still crawls flows splashes speeds rushes

22 ACADEMIC VOCABULARY Now, please turn to page 30 in your Practice Workbooks. Follow the directions for A and B. For Part C, you will need ONE COMPLETE SENTENCE (or more) to correctly answer this section. HINT: Check pg. 66 in your textbooks.

24 Exit ticket: Name an adjective (a describing word) and have your partner come up with two synonyms. Then reverse roles!

25 Learning Target I can describe the difference between a need and a want and give examples.

26 THE SECRET WATER The water we use every day comes from: lakes rivers underground pools It comes to us, into our homes and schools, via pipes.

27 THE SECRET WATER Do you know of any lakes or rivers or oceans in our area? Could you walk to any of these every day? Would you want to? We’re going to watch a video about how people get the water they need. Turn to PAGE 31 in your Practice Workbooks.

28 THE SECRET WATER People need water to stay alive. We’ll be watching this video that you’ll be taking notes about on pg. 31. Here is what you’ll need to do on Pg. 31. At least 3-5 items for A. Part B: TWO or more sentences explaining the video, #1. TWO or more interesting things you learned, #2. THREE or more sentences about what you learned and how this resource is USED, #3.

29 THE SECRET WATER (Dig. Library Selection 1, 2:35) Look at page 68 in your books. Now close your eyes and imagine yourself walking along with the people in the photo on pg. 68. How do you feel as you walk along? Are you tired? Do your muscles hurt? Do you like doing this every day? Pull out your composition books for a quick write (see p. 68).

30 WE NEED WATER Tell me about a time you used these phrases: I need _____________. I want _____________. Now listed to the song about needs and wants ~ you can follow along in your books on page 69.

31 5 minutes for a quick-write End

32 WE NEED WATER Needs and wants are different. Use need for important things you must do or have. i.e. We need water to live. Use want to tell about something you would like to have or do. i.e. I want the latest iPhone.

33 NEED VS. WANTS DECIDE IF IT IS A NEED OR A WANT. Is this really important or can I live without it? If it is really important, use words such as need and must: “I need water.” If it is something you can live without, use words such as want and would like: “I want to rest.”

34 Exit ticket I will give you two sticky notes. I want you to write a want on one sticky note, and a need on the other. Place your sticky note on the white board in the correct place. WANTNEED

35 Learning Target I can name two strategies that I can use when I don’t understand what I am reading.

36 Grammar Rules NOUN: NAMES A PERSON, PLACE, THING, OR IDEA. Look at page 70 in your books A singular noun names one person, place, thing, or idea. A plural noun names more than one person, place, thing, or idea. 1) Create a chart like the one on page 71 in your composition book. Optional: TR11, TR12, TR13

37 GRAMMAR: Spelling rules To make most nouns plural, just add–s. dog – dogs If the noun ends in s, z, sh, ch, or x, add –es box -- boxes If the noun ends in y after the consonant, change the y to i and add –es. fly – flies

38 VOCABULARY Turn to page 72 in your books. Review the words. Turn to page 32-33 in your Practice Workbooks. For each word: Use the rating scale, check understanding, and complete the sentence with THREE or more words and a PERIOD! On Page 33, Part B, you need to use at least TWO vocabulary words in 2 or more complete sentences telling about a time you overcame a challenge.

39 READING STRATEGY: Clarifying Ideas Turn to pg. 73 in your books. How to clarify ideas: 1) When I do not understand something I read, I go back and reread the text. Or 2) When I read on, I keep reading to see whether the meaning in the text becomes more clear.

40 LEGEND A legend is an old story, often about a well-known person or event. Legends are mostly fiction, but some parts of a legend may be based on fact. Many legends are passed down from generation to generation. A legend is a story with characters and a setting.

41 CRITICAL VIEWING Look at the picture of the girl on page 75. Compare it to the picture on page 78. What clues to these illustrations give you about the story? How has the girl changed? She looks older; she has white hair. What clues to these illustrations give you about the story? The girl in this story changes over time. Water is important in this story. The girls lives near mountains.

42 THE SECRET WATER SET A PURPOSE We’re going to read to find out what Shu Fa does to help her village.

43 What strategies can you use when you do not understand what you are reading? Two good strategies to use when I do not understand text are __________ and ____________. Please write the two strategies in your composition book.
