1 I have world languages. for characters, setting, and plot? I have elements of a fiction book. for fins, gills, and tail? By Deb Hanson

2 I have the first card. for reading, math, social studies, and science? I have subjects in school. for trumpet, trombone, and tuba? I have brass instruments. for mittens, scarf, and stocking cap? I have things you wear in the winter. for parrot, eagle, and vulture? I have types of birds. for earthquakes, tornadoes, and hurricanes? I have natural disasters. for Africa, Australia, and Europe? I have continents on Earth. for teacher, janitor, principal, and guidance counselor? I have workers in a school. for January, April, August, and November?

3 I have months of the year. for sharks, whales, and jellyfish? I have animals that live in the ocean. for monitor, mouse, and keyboard? I have parts of a computer. for the heart, lungs, and the liver? I have organs in the human body. for table of contents, glossary, and index? I have parts of a nonfiction book. for snow, rain, and hail? I have types of precipitation. for nest, lodge, hive, and cave? I have homes for animals. for Spanish, French, and English? I have world languages. for characters, setting, and plot?

4 I have elements of a fiction book. for fins, gills, and tail? I have parts of a fish. for daisies, roses, and tulips? I have types of flowers. for classroom, gym, lunchroom, and library? I have rooms in a school. for beak, wing, and feather? I have parts of a bird. for juice, sauce, pie, and cider? I have things you can make with apples. for Spain, France, and England? I have names of countries. for ski, sled, and build a snowman? I have things you do in the winter. for core, flesh, and skin?

5 I have parts of an apple. for sleeve, collar, and buttons? I have parts of a shirt. for carrots, celery, lettuce, and onions? I have types of vegetables. for gold, silver, and bronze? I have Olympic medals. Who has the first card? ANSWER KEY Main Idea & Details 1. First card 2. Subjects in school 3. Brass instruments 4. Things you wear in the winter 5. Types of bird 6. Natural disasters 7. Continents on Earth 8. Workers in a school 9. Months of the year 10. Animals that live in the ocean 11. Parts of a computer 12. Organs in the human body 13. Parts of a nonfiction book 14. Types of precipitation 15. Homes for animals 16. World languages 17. Parts of a fish 18. Elements of fiction books 19. Types of flowers 20. Rooms in a school 21. Parts of a bird 22.Things you can make with apples 23. Names of countries 24. Things you do in the winter 25. Parts of an apple 26. Parts of a shirt 27. Types of vegetables 28. Olympic medals

6 Directions 1. Cut out the cards. Laminate for durability, if desired. 2. Shuffle the cards. 3. Give one card to each student. If you have fewer than 28 students, give some students two cards. When I have fewer than 28 students, I definitely keep the first card and the last card and read them myself. (This is because those holding these cards do not have to listen as carefully and evaluate what their classmates are asking.) 4. Talk briefly about each student s responsibilities in this game. a. It is their responsibility to speak loudly and clearly (not too fast!) when it is time for them to read their card. (I model poor reading and appropriate reading, and we discuss which one was easier to follow.) b. It is their responsibility to listen carefully during the entire activity. 5. The student (or the teacher) holding the card that says This is the first card reads that card, and the activity continues. 6. As the teacher, you can follow along with the answer page. 7. The first reading is usually quite slow. I usually time my students from start to finish with a stopwatch, and record the elapsed time on the board. Then, I shuffle the cards, pass them out again, and repeat the activity. I time the students the second time, and they always improve their time! They are always very motivated to try to get a better time, and I know that it s a simple way to work toward improving reading fluency!
