Students present their sentence orally to the class. Variation 2: The teacher points to different words on the board and has one or more students use the word in a sentence that involves something they have done or experienced. Students present their sentence orally to the class. General Implementation Notes 1. Before starting a lesson, mark the key words (and three-sentence blocks) in the teacher edition using Post-It TM notes. (Optional: Have students use Post-It TM notes to mark these pages in their text books as well.) 2. To help focus your instruction and pacing, feel free to mark or highlight any portions of this teacher guide as needed before starting the lesson. 3. Write the three key words and definitions on the board or chart paper before starting the lesson. 4. Step 1 should occur the first time the story is read aloud by students. Write the key words and definitions on the board or chart paper before starting Step 1. Suggestion: Have different students read the story on a paragraph-by-paragraph basis. Interrupt the reading process when the sentence with the key word is read. Then ask the two questions for each key word before continuing. Continue reading until the entire story has been read. (Other approaches to Shared Reading may be employed to accomplish this same purpose.) 5. For Step 2, after the entire story has been read, add the target words and definitions on the chart paper or board next to the key words previously taught. After students read a three-sentence block
7 and substitute a target word, ask the three scripted questions. Note: For the third question in Step 2, the substituted word is always compared to the preceding target word that was used. 6. For Step 3, erase all the words on the board--or cover the chart paper--and write each pair of new target words on the board or chart paper; however DO NOT WRITE OR TEACH DEFINITIONS IN STEP 3. Follow the script for Step Correcting student errors: In Steps 1 and 2 refer students to the definitions and re-ask the question(s). For Step 3, refer students only to the sentence or story context. Do NOT provide students with definitions. 8. For cumulative review: Place sample words from the semantic family on the board, and have students use the words in a sentence, following either Variation 1 or 2. Teacher Notes
