  2. We will draw conclusions and identify details that help support conclustions. We will explain our ideas and tell why we think them. Our Reading Objectives

  3. Vocabulary Words • Common- usual, regular • Broad- wide • Steer- guide • Shallow – not deep • Prefer- to like something better • Surface-top • Injure-hurt • Control- direct

  4. Let’s Practice Drawing Conclusions! A hermit crab carries a shell that is much larger than it’s body. If a hermit crab thinks it’s in danger, it will pull back into it’s shell. It also has strong claws. If you pick up a hermit crab, make sure you don’t get pinched! How do you know that a hermit crab uses it’s shell to protect itself?

  5. Expository books have real photos and lots of true facts about a topic. We also use the SQRRRL process and fill out a tree diagram. Narrative books usually have illustrations and not many facts.
