1.6.1 “Animal Park"

Last week we read about how Kim and Brad helped a small red bird that lived in a tree in their neighborhood.

How did Kim and Brad help the bird?

How can we help animals around the world?

Let’s sing “Big, Round World” from the Sing with Me Big Book!

Were the animals in “A Fox and a Kit” wild or tame animals?Where did they live? Why do you think the bird in “Get The Egg!” built its nest in a tree?Circle the words: small, treeHave children say and spell each word as they write it in the air.

• desert- a desert is a very dry area, usually covered with sand.

Examples: • It doesn’t rain very often in the desert.• Deserts are usually very hot.• You might see a cactus in the desert.

• forest- a forest is a place with many trees.

Examples:• You must stay on the trail when you hike through the

forest.• The forest is home to many animals.• Smokey Bear tells people to help prevent forest fires.

• world- the world is all of Earth.

Examples: • The world is round.• Billions of people live in the world.• Some people have traveled all around the world.

Today we are going to sing a song about habitats. Listen for the amazing words as you sing!

world forest desert

Sing the song again and have children circle

their arms for world, extend their arms for forest, and fan their

faces for desert.

Build BackgroundLet’s Talk About Wild Animals

Let’s talk about what you see here…Where might you see a panda? What habitat does the snake live in? How is its habitat different from the penguins’

habitat? Do you think you would ever see an alligator in your neighborhood? Why or why not? What do you know about endangered animals?

What problems do wild animals

have?

How can we help wild

animals that need help?

Cause and Effect

• Most things happen for a reason.

• Words like because and so can help you figure out what happens and why.

Good readers ask themselves what happens and why it

happens.

What is happening? Why is this happening?

When I read, I ask myself …

Listen as I read A Rain Forest in the Zoo.

READ STORY!!

Think about the story…

• Why does the exhibit look like a real forest?

• Why do zookeepers change the lights in the exhibit?

• Why does the zoo want to keep its animals safe and happy?

GRAMMAR - QuestionsQuestions begin with capital letters and end

with a question mark.

Can you see zebras? is a question, so it begins with a capital letter and ends with a

question mark.

Have students ask questions and write them on the board.

1.6.2 “Animal Park"

Today we will read about how animals get around. They can travel by water, air, or land.

Have you ever seen animals swim by?Let’s sing “Big, Round World” from

the Sing with Me Big Book!Reread the message.

Have children raise their hands when they hear a word with short i.

• surf- surf means “to ride.” When you are surfing you are riding or moving from place to place.

Examples:

1. Some people who live near oceans use surfboards to surf big waves.

2. Surfing the waves takes lots of skill.

3. It’s fun to surf the Internet.

Remember that illustrators make decisions about what kind of pictures to draw for stories. Sometimes they

draw pictures that look real.

As I read, listen for animals that travel in the water.

Some babies travel through the air or on the ground. Some animals that travel in water may be surfing, or riding on top of the water. How does a beaver travel?Do you think a beaver can only travel in water? Why or why not?

Phonemic AwarenessDelete Final Phonemes

• The mother lion can grasp her baby. Listen to the sounds in grasp, /g/ /r/ /a/ /s/ /p/.

• Now say each sound as you write the letter that goes with it.

• (Have children say the sounds as you point to the letters and blend the sounds to say the word).

• Now listen as I take away the /p/ at the end of grasp: /gr/ /a/ /s/, grass.

• Erase the letter p and add an s. Have children say the sounds as you point to the letters and blend the sounds to say the word (grass).

• Continue with the words: tent, self, mend, past, felt, skimp
