  23. Language Skills • Editing/Revising Checklist • Do the mood and tone of the writing fit the genre? • Have I used exaggerations to create humor and set the tone? • Does every sentence include a subject and predicate? • Are words with long vowel sounds spelled correctly?

  24. Activate Prior Knowledge Super human qualities humorous Tall Tales Impossible events exaggerated

  25. Cause and Effect • An effect is what happened as the result of a cause. A cause is what made something happen. • Words such as why, because, and as a result are clues to cause-and-effect relationships. • If there are no clue words, ask yourself, “Why did this event happen? What happened as a result of this event?” • An effect may become the cause of another effect. Cause Effect Effect Cause

  26. Monitor and Fix Up Good readers make sure they understand what they are reading. If you don’t understand how causes result in certain effects, pause. Ask yourself, “What don’t I understand?” You might decide to review what you’ve read and read on to find out what happens.

  27. Write: Read “The Real Thunder and Lightning.” Make a graphic organizer like the one above to show the cause of lightning that flashes inside a cloud. Use your graphic organizer to write a paragraph that explains the cause of thunder. If you have difficulty, reread the last paragraph to see if that helps.

  40. Vocabulary Strategy: Homonyms (Context Clues) When you are reading, you may come across a familiar word used in an unfamiliar way. The word may be a homonym. Homonyms are spelled the same, but they have different meanings. For example, feet can be units of measurement or the end parts of the legs. You can use the context –The words and sentences around the word- to figure out which meaning is being used. Reread the sentence in which the homonym appears. Look for clues to the homonym’s meaning. If you need more help, read the sentences around the sentence with the homonym. Look for clues or additional information that suggests the homonym’s meaning. Try the meaning in the sentence. Does it make sense? Activity: As you read “The Tale of Carrie the Calf,” look for homonyms. Use the context to determine the meanings of the homonyms.

  41. Genre: Tall Tale An amusing story told with great exaggeration and bigger-than-life characters. Examples:
