What's in this resource:
★ A PowerPoint with definitions of the skills and examples from the texts
★ Texts that are used in the included PowerPoint for examples of the skills
★ A mini-book for students to use to record notes from the PowerPoint
★ A video to show you (and your students) how to make the mini-book
★ 5 passages with both fiction and non-fiction
★ Standards-based questions
★ Answer Key
★ Suggestion for making it an engaging review through cooperative learning & competition.
This is how I used this in my classroom:
1. Students read the texts from the Powerpoint.
2. Students made the mini-book
3. The teacher showed the first couple of skills using the Powerpoint while the students took notes in the mini-book.
4. Students worked in groups on the practice sheets for the 3 skills they just reviewed.
5. Teacher had already numbered the desks. After a period of time, the teacher called a number. The student in each group who has that number must give their group's answer on a whiteboard (or in some other manner). If it is correct, the group earns a point. If it is incorrect, the group loses a point. It's a friendly competition and the group with the most points after using all the practice sheets wins!
6. Repeat for the rest of the skills!
Quick, Easy & Fun! Students get the essence of the standards as a final "workout" of their reading skills before the big state test!
