Building Background

• Has anyone ever eaten ice cream quickly before?

• Did you experience an ice-cream headache?

Background Information• The selection you are going to read is from a science magazine called Odyssey, and

it was written by a girl in eighth grade.• People get ice-cream headaches when something very cold touches the center of

the palate, which is the roof of he mouth.• The cold temperature may prompt nerves that control the blood flow to the head

to enlarge, which in turn causes the head to hurt. This phenomenon, often called “brain freeze,” actually has nothing to do with the brain—just the blood vessels in the head. And it is not dangerous.

• Other cold foods and drinks can also cause these headaches. To prevent such headaches, it is recommended to eat the cold food more slowly, or even warm it up a little before you eat it.—from kidshealth.org

Purpose

BigIdea

What steps lead to a good experiment?

Genre

• Can you tell me what genre this is?• Expository

text

The purpose of expository text is to share information with the reader.

Facts about real events or real people are often included.

Information is presented in a straightforward way.

Events are presented in the order in which they occurred, and steps are written in the order in which they should be completed

The writing is organized by topicsDiagrams, photographs, maps, or other

illustrations can be included to help the reader understand the subject. The factual information often can be checked by referring to other sources.

Comprehension Strategies

• Adjust Reading Speed• Reread the text if it’s

not making sense. • Change your rate of

speed. Go slower when trying to understand details.

• Summarizing• Only include the most

important part or the main ideas.

• Draw conclusions from the text

Handing Off

• Did you grasp the following ideas?• Why the author wrote a paper for a medical journal• What project the author completed for the science

fair• The steps the author took to complete her project.• The results of the author’s science project• How the British Medical Journal reacted to her paper• How the news media reacted to her story

Inquiry Process• Organize the information you found in your inquiry investigations. • Make a final decision about whether your conjectures have been

confirmed or whether they need to be revised.• Now that you have plenty of information, you will need to

organize it with your presentations in mind. • Suggest interesting ways to present your information. The form

of presentation you choose should be appropriate for the research your have done.

• For example, if you have researched a famous scientist, staging an imaginary interview with that person would be more informative than demonstrating one of his or her experiments.

Inquiry Processcontinued

• After you decide on a presentation, you will review what you have learned by revisiting any notes, photocopies, pictures, or other materials you have collected. To organize this information, you will write the main points you learned from each source. These points should be helpful for creating a particular type of presentation. Finally, you will compare what you have learned to your conjectures.

• Ask whether your conjectures are true or whether they need to be revised. If they do, revise your conjectures now.

• This ends the unit so begin to plan for your oral presentations.

WritingExplaining a Scientific Process day 1

Prewriting

• During the next two weeks you will be writing about a scientific process. Writing about a scientific process involves observing the process and explaining what is observed.

• Transparency 103• Reread “How Fast Do You Eat Your Ice Cream?”• Discuss what parts of the experiment you want to include

in your reports. Do you want to include the whole process, or do you want to focus on one hypothesis?

• What parts of the experiment will you explain?
