Your purpose is to entertain and inform your audience. Include vivid details and begin with an attention-grabbing lead. Choose the best headline or title for your story.

  23. Language Skills • Editing/Revising Checklist • Is each topic sentence supported with strong details? • Have I used principal parts of irregular verbs correctly? • Have I spelled words with consonant sounds /j/, /ks/, /sk/, and /s/ correctly?

It cannot be proved true or false. • A sentence may contain both a statement of fact and a statement of opinion.

  39. Vocabulary Strategy: (TM 318) Context Clues: Homonyms Homonyms are words with the same spelling but different histories and meanings. Sometimes an unfamiliar word is a homonym. You can use context to help figure out its meaning. The words and sentences around the homonym offer clues. Read the words and sentences around the homonym to find clues. Think about the different meanings the homonym might have. For example, the word bill can mean “a statement of money owed” or “the beak of a bird.” Try each meaning in the sentence. Decide which meaning makes sense in the sentence. As you read “The Artist of the Hour,” look for words that are homonyms. Decide which meaning the author is using.

  40. Genre: Biography A biography is a story of a person’s life written by another person. As you read, notice how Waterhouse Hawkins is a combination artist/scientist.

  41. How does Waterhouse Hawkins introduce the world to a new kind of creature.

  42. Preview and Predict Preview the selection title and illustrations and discuss the topics or ideas you think this selection will cover. Use selection vocabulary words as you talk about what you expect to learn.
