  4. Comprehension Skills Main Idea and Details The main idea is what a paragraph or passage is mostly about, while details give more information about the main idea. The main idea can be found in either the first or last sentence of a paragraph. “One thing that we saw on the road frightened me. Chain gangs.” What are some details that support this main idea?

  5. Comprehension Skills • Discussing the Selection • What does this selection tell us about the author’s heritage? • How important is family to the author? • What are some differences and similarities between your family and Eloise Greenfield’s family? • How has this selection connected with your knowledge of the unit theme?

  6. Publishing a Personal Narrative Writing can be published in a variety of ways: • It can be displayed on a bulletin board • It can be made into a book by putting the pages between covers. • It can be collected with other pieces of writing and published in an anthology. • It can be submitted for publication to a local newspaper or national magazine • It can be published in a school newspaper • It can be read aloud to the class or another group

  7. Autobiography An autobiography tells the story of the author’s life, while a biography is about someone else’s life. • What kinds of people write autobiographies? • Who might be interested in reading such books? • What autobiographies have you read? Why did you read it? What did you learn from reading about that person’s life? • Might someone your age write an autobiography?

  8. Using a Dictionary or Glossary A dictionary is used to clarify the spelling, pronunciation, usage, and definition of words; it is arranged in alphabetical order; and it has guide words. Your Student Anthology glossary shares all of these characteristics, although it will only give the meaning and part of speech of a word as it is used in you book’s selections.

  9. Commas in a Series A comma is used to set off and separate words and groups of words. Practice cats dogs Carrots tomatoes turnips Tennis basketball football volleyball
