Objective:
Students will grapple with U5C2 vocabulary, study mood and tone, and learn how to make connections while reading a story.
Activities:
1. Get your binder and a text book. Make sure you have a writing implement ready to go.
2. Complete the Vocabulary Example Chart for U5C2 vocabulary that appears on page 420 of your text book.
3. Learn about mood and how author's use mood to cause readers to experience feelings/emotions while reading.
4. Learn about tone and how an author's tone affects the reader's perception of a text.
5. Discuss how making connections while reading makes a story more meaningful for the reader.
Note: We are preparing to read the short story "The Baby-Sitter" by Jane Yolen. If there is time, we read about the author and jot down a few notes that might help us make connections when we read her story.
