Our family has a habit of going there each Friday. We begin our trip at seven o’clock at night. It is great to get to that cozy house. Even if we never went outside, it would be a fun trip. But no day inside can equal a day on the openwater. I will recall every detail of our weekends together for many years into the future.

  3. Fluency • Good readers… • They raise and lower their voices as if they were having a conversation. • Think about the way the words would sound in normal conversation • Look ahead to be able to emphasize important words or phrases • Pay attention to punctuation • Listen as I read part of “One Small Place in a Tree”. • Now you try… • Turn to page 419-422 and take turns using intonation with a partner.

  4. Author’s Purpose • An Author’s Purpose is as easy as • P – persuade • I – inform • E – entertain !!!!!!! • How can readers determine the author’s purpose? • By looking for clues such as whether the selection tells facts or is a story • Knowing the author’s purpose helps you know… • Set your purpose for reading • Helps readers understand the text • Why would an author would write… • A textbook • To inform • Comic book • entertain • Commercial ad • persuade

  5. Author’s Purpose • Full of Life • You might think that an old, dead tree standing in a forest is just an eyesore. Think again. Standing dead trees are called “snags,” and snags are important to many kinds of wildlife. Wood ducks, woodpeckers, eagles, and owls build nests in snags. Hawks often use snags as perches. Many small animals such as raccoons, mice, and squirrels also call these hollowed out trees their home. • To us, some of the creatures living in snags are pests. Plenty of ants, beetles, spiders, and earthworms arms are found in wildlife trees. However, these tiny tenants are important sources of food for many other species. • Snags may look ready to fall over any minute, but some large trees can stand for more than 150 years after they have died! So, when you see a dead tree, think of the life inside. What may look like an eyesore is actually home-sweet-home to many of our forest friends. • What is the author of this selection telling you about? • The importance of dead trees. • What was the author’s purpose and why do you think that? • To inform; the author gives information about how animals use the snags before and after they fall • Turn to page 416. • Reread. • What did the author want to tell readers on this page? • Woodpeckers ate the beetles, which made the hole bigger. Bacteria got into the tree and caused disease, which eventually killed the tree.

  6. Main Idea and Details • The main idea is the most important idea in a passage. • Details support the main idea. • The main idea can be found… • In the 1st sentence • The title • The last sentence • Or the reader has to think about the details and decide • Open your book to page 416. Whisper read that page with your partner. • As I read the last paragraph, I see that the first sentence is “Now disease strikes.” Then I read the details. I ask myself, “What do these details have in common?” They are all about the bacteria in the tree. Then I look at what the last sentence says about the tree, “It’s dying inside and out.” so the main idea must be a combination of all of these parts: “Bacteria are killing the tree.” • Listen as I read pg. 51 of the anthology. • Let’s list some details from this page. • The tall oak begins to topple • The wind tears the oak’s roots. • The tree crashes down. • Using the details, what can we decide is the main idea? • The storm makes the tree fall. • Look at page 426. • Reread this with your group. • Write important details from the page. • Decide the main idea. • Main idea: • Paying attention to details can help you solve bird mysteries.
