Question of the Day

How does technology help


Today we will learn about:

Build Concept Vocabulary Graphic Sources Mood Dictionary/Glossary Grammar: Adjectives and Articles Spelling: Unusual Spellings Note Taking Technology and Adventures

Graphic Sources Graphic sources include charts,

tables, graphs, maps, illustrations, and photographs.

Before reading, look closely at graphic sources that accompany a selection. They will give you an idea of what you will read.

Mood Mood is the atmosphere or

feeling of a written work. The mood can be found by asking, “How does reading this make me feel?”

Examples of moods are: sad, eerie, lighthearted, dreamlike, suspenseful.

The mood of a selection often matches a character’s emotions.

Dictionary/Glossary You cannot always use context

clues to determine the meanings of unfamiliar words. In those cases, you should refer to a dictionary or glossary.

List any unfamiliar words from the story. Look up each word in a dictionary and write the part of speech and meaning that fits the word’s usage in the selection.

Dictionary/GlossaryWord Meaning

Note Taking You may need to take notes

when planning a report or studying for a test.

To paraphrase is to restate or explain something in your own words while retaining all of the author’s original meaning and ideas.

To synthesize means to put ideas together, to combine, or rearrange.

Note Taking A paraphrase includes all of the

ideas of the writer, even those a reader may think unimportant. In this way, a paraphrase differs from a summary, which includes only the important ideas.

When taking notes, paraphrase and synthesize to put the material together in your own words.

Note Taking Whether information is quoted or

paraphrased for the purposes of a report, sources should be cited in a bibliography.

You can record your findings on notepaper or 3x5 note cards.

Underwater exploration is an interesting science that I will study someday.
