ReadWorks· The Harmonica
The Harmonica by ReadWorks
Lola's brother is in a band. They practice in the garage every day after
school. They make so much noise that Lola can't do her homework. She
bangs on the garage door. She shouts, "Be quiet!" But they don't even hear
her. Lola can't stand it anymore. She needs to go for a walk.
The woods behind Lola's house are peaceful. Just a hundred feet from her
house, her brother's noise fades away. There is a little stream just behind her
backyard. On weekends, she and her friends make paper boats to race in the
stream. They like to pretend they are pirates, racing on the sea. Next to the
stream, she sees a squirrel eating a nut.
"Hello Mr. Squirrel!" she says. The squirrel is scared, and runs away.
Lola hears a bird singing. It sounds like a happy bird. She wonders what kind
of bird it is. It is red, with a fuzzy head. Maybe it's a robin? She will have to
remember to look it up in the encyclopedia when she gets home. Lola tries to
sing along with the bird. She doesn't know the words to his song.
Something shiny beside the stream catches Lola's eye. She jumps over the
stream and picks it up. It is a thin rectangular box made of metal. There

are holes on its sides. Something is printed on the metal. It is so dirty that
she can't make it out. She wipes the grime off with her sleeve. It says, "Old
Fashioned Blues Harmonica." Lola has heard her brother's friends talk about
harmonicas. They are a very simple musical instrument. Anyone can play a
song on a harmonica, even without a band.
Lola rinses the harmonica off in the stream. With the dirt gone, it looks as
good as new. She dries it on her sleeve. Lola puts the instrument to her
mouth and blows. It makes a high-pitched, whistling noise. She moves her
mouth and blows again. Now the sound is deeper. She covers the back of it
with her hand. Now when she blows, it sounds different. She blows harder
and softer. She moves her hands and her mouth. Pretty soon, she is playing
a song. It may not sound as good as the bird's but the robin doesn't seem to
mind.
That night, Lola shows the harmonica to her brother.
"Cool!" he says. "My music teacher taught me how to play the harmonica a
little. Do you want me to show you?"
"Sure!" says Lola.
The next time her brother has band practice, Lola plays along. Now that she
has an instrument of her own, the noise doesn't sound so bad.

Day 2 Math: Learning Target: I can identify the attributes of different shapes called polygons.
This week and next week you will be learning about flat (2-D) shapes called polygons. The
straight edges in polygons are all connected so they form a closed shape that has vertices and angles. Polygons have parts called attributes. These parts give each polygon its look and name. These parts include the edges, vertices, angles, right angles, and parallel lines. The parts we are focusing on this week are the edges, vertices and angles.
Read the vocab words and study diagrams below to help you fill out the table on the next page.
Vocabulary Word Bank:
Vocab Word Definition Example
polygons flat shapes with three or more straight edges that have vertices and angles
attributes the parts of a shape such as its edges, vertices and angles
See all the examples below
edges the sides of a polygon
vertices a shape’s corners where two edges come together (a single corner is called a vertex)
angles a figure formed by two edges coming together
right angle a square corner or an angle that measures 90 degrees
parallel lines lines that are always the same distance from each other and do not cross

Day 2 Writing: Writing the Body of a Letter
Learning Target: I can write the body (message) of a friendly letter.
The body of a friendly letter is where you write the message or the information you want to send. You ask and answer questions about who, what, where, when, and why. One way to begin the body is with a question or a question and a statement such as:
• How are you?
• How are you? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you. • How have you been? • How have you been? I miss you.
Here is an example:
How are you? I haven’t seen you in such a long time.
Now you try. Start a message to your teacher.
Next, tell your teacher how you are doing.
I am doing well, but I miss school.
Your turn. Answer it honestly. Use your own words.

Then, write about what you have been doing and/or what you have been learning. Tell about something new or exciting in your life. Example:
I have been very busy doing schoolwork. I like watching all the video learning links. An exciting thing that is happening is a bird made a nest on my patio. It will be fun to observe the changes. I hope I can see the baby birds when they hatch! My mom isn’t very happy about the mess the birds are making though!
Your turn. Write some facts about yourself. (If you need more room, write on the back)
Now, wrap up your message with an ending. Example:
That’s what has been happening in my life lately. Please write back! I would like to know what you’ve been up to. I look forward to hearing from you!
Your turn. Write your ending.

Day 3 Reading:
Fluency Focus: Phrasing and Expression
When reading sentences, good readers “scoop” the words into phrases to make it sound like they are talking. When readers use good phrasing and expression, they are able to understand the text better.
Example sentence from “The Harmonica” with scoops:
“On weekends, she and her friends make paper boats
to race in the stream.”
TIP: When reading, take a small pause after
each scoop, then continue reading.
Task 1: Read the sentence below. Then draw in “scoop lines”
under each group of words, and practice reading the sentence.
“They like to pretend they are pirates, racing on the sea. “
Task 2: Use “The Harmonica” story to practice reading with expression and phrasing.

2nd Grade: Learning Packet for the Week of May 4th-8th
Day 3 Writing: Learning Target: I can write a complete letter with all five parts.
Hi kids! On Monday, you learned about the five parts that make up a letter.
Here are the five parts:
1. Date
2. Greeting
3. Body
4. Closing
5. Signature
You also learned about how a letter is organized and you practiced labeling the five parts
of a letter.
Did you know that when you are writing a letter, you can use your hand to help make
sure you have included all of the five parts of a letter?
We call this the 5-Finger Rule. Each finger represents a part of your letter.
• Thumb = Heading (Date) • Pointer finger = Greeting
• Middle finger = Body
• Ring finger = Closing
• Pinky finger = Signature
Hold up each finger one at a time to check that your letter includes all five parts.
For example:
✓ Hold up your thumb to check that you wrote the date (heading) at the top of your
letter. ✓ Hold up your pointer finger to check that you wrote a greeting. ✓ And so on . . .

2nd Grade: Learning Packet for the Week of May 4th-8th
There is an extension activity and video on the Ferndale School District website that you can do to help you remember this handy memory tool!
Today, you are going to write a complete letter (with all five parts!) using the body of a
letter that you wrote to your teacher on Tuesday. Simply follow these steps:
Step 1: Using the letter writing template provided, write the date on the heading line at the top right of your paper. Remember to put a comma between the day and the year! Like this: June 24, 2008
*Notice that June is capitalized because it is the name of a month.
Step 2: On the top left of your paper, below the date, write a greeting to your teacher. Always end your greeting with a comma, like this:
Dear Mr. Bloom,
*Notice that we start our greeting with a capital letter and Mr. Bloom is
capitalized because it is the name of a person.
Step 3: Using the body of a letter that you wrote to your teacher on Tuesday, copy the
sentences from each of the four boxes onto the lines below your greeting to form the body of your letter.
*Remember:
o Indent the first word of your first sentence. o Start each sentence with a capital o End each sentence with correct punctuation.
Step 4: On the line below the body of your letter on the right side, write your closing. The first word of your closing should have a capital letter and it should end with a comma, like this:
Fondly, OR Yours truly,
Step 5: On the line below your closing (NOT next to) sign your name, like this:
Darth Vader Congratulations! You just wrote a letter to your teacher!

Need a sanity boost during this time of distance learning? We are here to help!
Thank you for all that you are doing to support your students during this uncertain time in our community and world. We know this is hard and hope to team up with you in making this transition successful, while maintaining meaningful connections between you and your children.
Our Ferndale school counselors are offering three different resources to help you navigate this “new normal” together!
1-on-1 Consult Calls This can be a phone call or zoom chat (whatever you are most comfortable with) with a school counselor to help guide and coach you in transitioning to distance learning with your child(ren). We can set up a one-time call or weekly sessions to help support you each step of the way.
Parent Support Groups A school counselor would facilitate a weekly online Zoom meeting between parents to share ideas, resources and get help with common "distance learning" struggles like academic work organization, social and emotional support, setting boundaries with your children, etc.
Weekly “Coffee with the Counselor” Q&A sessions Early Learning/Elementary: Tuesday 8-9am Middle/High School: Thursday 8-9am
How do I access these resources? Please fill out the survey by scanning the QR code with your mobile camera. It is also located on the Ferndale School District website under “Learning Resources” or contact your school counselor!
