This week we are going to be learning about sequencing and directions within reading. We will have ten new vocabulary words and we will review sing consonant and consonant digraph sounds.
Sequencing - When we read stories there is an order to which events occur within the text. Learning how to sequence events within context improves reading comprehension.
Example: One day Mr. Tim did not feel well, so he told his mother that his stomach hurt. His mother took his temperature and he was very hot! His parents called the doctor and the doctor said take him to the hospital. The doctors at the hospital gave him some medicine. Mr. Tim felt better the next day.
1) Mr. Tim did not feel good.
2) His mother took his temperature.
3) His parents called the doctor.
4) The doctor said go to the hospital.
5) The doctors at the hospital gave him medicine.
6) He felt better.
Being able to break a story down into sequential parts helps with understanding and analyzing a story.
Vocabulary:
- before
- after
- first
- last
- second
- third
- begin
- finish
- explain
- understand
The students will be quizzed on this on Thursday.
