Classroom Activities
I will use the same strategies that are mentioned earlier for teaching reading/science. Before reading aloud the story to the students, I will give a set of vocabulary cards and
using pictures. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. I will make a word list on chart paper; match each word with its meaning. For second language learners, it is important that the words match the pictures. I will also give each student a letter of the alphabet and, as I read the story, I will ask the students to stand up and give a copy of the poem and science information that goes with the letter. To check for student understanding, I will prepare comprehension purpose questions for the students to answer as I read along and write them on small sticky notes.
