Lesson Topic Inventions Essential Question How do inventions help athletes? Anchor Text Technology Wins the Game Genre: Informational Text Written By: Mark Andrews Fluency Phrasing When good readers read aloud, they group words together and make natural pauses between phrases. Readers use punctuation, such as commas, periods, exclamation points, and question marks, to help them know where to pause. Comprehension Target Skill: Text and Graphic Features Text and graphic features provide additional information about a text and can help students locate information related to the main text. One kind of text feature is a sidebar. A sidebar is set off from the main text in some visual way, often being set inside a box. A sidebar has information related to the main text, and it may include a graphic, such as a photograph, chart, diagram, or timeline. Resources Text and Graphic Features Target Skill: Sequence of Events
A technical procedure is made up of steps that must be followed in order, or sequence. Doing the steps out of sequence would change the procedure. Understanding how an author shows sequence helps readers understand the procedure described in the text. Recording steps in a sequence using a Flow Chart will help you remember the procedure described by the author. Sequence Word Activity Practice Sequencing Sequencing Puzzles Target Strategy: Question
Asking yourself questions about what you are reading is a good strategy to use with informational text. Asking questions beforehand can help you set a focus for reading. You can also stop during reading to ask yourself clarifying questions about the text to monitor, or make sure you understand what is read.
