Comprehension Strategy
Use Story Structure to help you understand the problem, and the solution of the problem.
Good readers pay attention at the beginning of a story to find out about the characters, the setting, and the problem faced by the characters. In the middle of the story, good readers look for important events that lead to the problem being solved at the end.

CHECK COMPREHENSION RETELL Remember that the plot is made up of the event, or things that happen, in a story. Keeping track of what is happening and when it happens can help a reader understand the story better. The plot includes the main character’s problem and the solution. Can someone tell me Carolyn’s main problem?
Now look at the graphic organizer you have been completing and use it to write a short summary of the story, including all the important events.
Carolyn’s main problem is that she believes her parents love her siblings more than her.

Reading With Expression Good readers show feeling and mood, or expression, as they read, matching what the writer has the characters say or think. For example, when a character is scared, a good reader will make his or her voice go higher. Readers can make their voices fierce for anger or squeaky and fast to show excitement.
Now listen and follow along as I read page 311 .
Reading with expression makes the story more interesting.Now we are going to get with our reading partners and practice reading with expression page 311. One will read one paragraph and then the other will read the next paragraph and so on till you finish that page. If you finish before I call time then read it again but this time you read your partners paragraph and let them read the paragraphs you just read.

GRAMMARPLURAL POSSESSIVE NOUNS
TEACH/MODEL Remember that plural means “more than one” and that a plural noun names more than one person, place, or thing. Most plural nouns end in s. If I want to show that one of these plural nouns owns or has something, I just add an apostrophe (‘) after the final s.
T 56
The students desks are in a row.The word students is a plural noun and the
students have the desks. We add an apostrophe to show that the desk belong to the students.
