Reading

Monday 8/24

Read My Family pages 42-57 in your Journeys Reading Book

Here is the link to the book being read aloud: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxnMMvkf7Vw

Here is the link to me reading the story and also teaching about how to use the Venn Diagram https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xamVIQGGC1M

As you read the story, think about:

  • Compare and Contrast (Things or events that are different or similar than other things and events in the story)
  • Question (Do you understand what you are reading? What questions do you have as you read?)

As you read or listen to the story, fill out the Venn Diagram handout. Compare and Contrast the activities that the adults do and the activities that the children do. (You will find this on page 54 in your reading book.) List the different activities that the adults do on the left side of the circles, and list the different activities that the children do on the right side of the circles. What activities do they both do? Write the similarities in the middle of the two circles.

Tuesday 8/25

Re-Read the story My Family in your Journeys Book (pages 43-57)

As you read the story, fill out the Venn Diagram (that you practiced using yesterday) to tell how your family is different than Camila's family, and how your family is the same as Camila's family.

  • List the different things Camila's family does together on the left side of the circles
  • List the different things that your family does together on the right side of the circles
  • List the things that you both do with your families, that are the same activities, in the middle of the two circles

Wednesday 8/26

Read Everybody's Happy (located in your baggy)

After you are finished reading the story, you will practice finding the subject and predicate in sentences from the story. Fill out the Everybody's Happy Grammar - Subject and Predicate handout page. Read the directions on the page carefully and complete the handout
