My heart sank
“...You’ll fit right in
around here.”
I see________. I can predict that _______ because _________.
With a partner, let’s make connections between the pieces and
make a prediction about the text you are about to read.
Pick a text. 
What do you see? What genre is this passage?
 Give
students time to explore the passage/graphic features and
display on the screen or cut apart and make it a manipulative.
Use a Lead4ward strategy such as 
Ball Toss Boogie, Choose &
Chat, Rise and Shine, Anticipation Guide or Undercover Agent
for students to explore the text.
Talk About It-Comprehension!
First Read-Read Aloud: What do you know about the genre? What
do you visualize? What is important about the genre? 
Give
students time to think, record and discuss what they know, use a 
graphic
organizer
 or 
Tour of Knowledge
 strategy. After the 
2nd read, 
students
make connections with the reading and filter information or events that are
most important using 
Fact or Fib, Just the Facts or Connect 4 Thinking.
Show It!-Ways to Show
 
Moira

Mrs. Shephard
What did the author say? How did the author's word choice help me understand the text? What is
the meaning of the text?
 Go deeper into comprehension by having students look for text evidence.
Using a strategy such as 
Presto Chango!
 change a multiple-choice
question into an open-ended response to deepen thinking and to correct learning mistakes. Other
strategies:
 IQ Slapdown, Make the Case, or Rock & Roll Item Review.
Analyze It!-Author’s Craft
What did the author do? Why?
 Point out specific features/characteristics of
point of view, structure and language for students to analyze using strategies
such as a 
Compare and Contrast Model, Odd One Out, Nine Squares or
Connect the Dots.
Reflect On It!
What are you more confident about from this
genre? What else do you need to work on?
• Comprehension
• Ways to Show
• Author's Craft
Reflect on the level of confidence the students
have with the focus of the day. Do a short formal
check for understanding (Ex. 4 multiple choice
comprehension questions on the passage)
