Story Packet

Today you will be doing this page of the story packet. This is the last page of the packet for this week. On this page they want you to match the characters to what they said. You will have to go back and look at the story, then draw a line from the animal, to the things they said. Some of them you probably remember, for example Who said, "Stay away from my tree!" ? That would be the tiger. I would draw a line form the tiger to that statement.

On the bottom part of this paper you are going to again use the story and write down what was said and who said it. You are looking for the key words "Screamed, Roared, Demanded, and Growled".

The first one was Screamed. There is someone who Screamed something. So I look through the story until I see the word Screamed. In the story it says, "Tiger was terrified. "What should I do?" he screamed. So on the line I would write "What should I do?" then the have the word screamed and I would write tiger on the second line because he is the one who said it. Now keep looking through the story to see where it says the words "Roared, Demanded, and Growled." See if you can figure out what was said these different ways and who said it.

Flap Book

Now we are going to work on suffixes. Last week we did the prefix flap book. This week you are going to do the suffix flap-book. Remember that a suffix comes after the root word. I need you to get out the three papers that are in this part of the packet. They were stapled together and the first page looks like this. It is a flap book. We have done flap books before.

On this page we are going to start by folding the page in half, the hot dog way along that dark solid line in the middle. We want the writing to be on the outside. You will do it the same way you did the Prefix Flap-Book. When you fold it in half it will look something like this.

Now open it back up and your are going to cut on the dotted line up to the solid black line. You will make the cuts up the 3 sets of dotted lines. The reason you open it up is because you don't want to cut the front of your flap-book. When you get done cutting, the other side of the flap-book should look like this.

Now you are going to get the pieces of paper that looks like this. It is some cards made out of card stock paper. You are going to cut out the Suffix cards y, ful, er, and ly, and you are going to glue them on the outside of the flaps.

When you are done doing it, the back side of your flap book will look like this.

Now you are going to decide where the words on the white paper go. Look at the words and figure out what is the root word and what is the suffix. The white paper looks like this.

This is a little different than the prefix flap-book. On this one you need to figure out what suffix the words go under. Would it be y, ful, er, or ly. Most of them should fairly easy. Try and figure out the root word and then the thing left after the word would be the suffix. Let's look at the word lumpy. What is the root word? It is lump, so the letters that are left would be the suffix. In this case the y is left so the suffix is y. I would lift the "y" flap and glue the word under the flap like in the example below.
