Subject: ELA- Reading
Grade: 5
Lesson Objective: To read unfamiliar multisyllabic words in and out of context
Common Core Standard: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.5.3.A- Use combined knowledge of all letter-sound correspondences, syllabication patterns, and morphology (e.g., roots and affixes) to read accurately unfamiliar multisyllabic words in context and out of context.
Materials:
Printable Sudent Worksheet Handout
Starter:
Say:
When you come to a word that you do not know when you are reading, what do you do? (Allow the students to answer.)
Main:
Say:
We all find words that we do not know when we are reading. There are different ways that we can figure out a word that we do not know.
You can sound the word out. You are reading books that are harder and longer now and sounding out a word is not as easy as it used to be!
You should start by figuring out the syllable patterns. You know that every syllable has a vowel sound.
The different syllable patterns are closed syllables and open syllables.
A closed syllable ends with a consonant and usually has a short vowel sound. For example, plan-et.
An open syllable ends with a long vowel sound. For example, pa-per.
In addition to the syllables in a word, you should think about the affixes. An affix is added to the beginning or end of a root word to form different words.
For example, the root word scope can be changed to microscope or telescope by adding different affixes.
Now, you are going to be doing a worksheet so that you can practice reading difficult words. You will read the paragraph. There are words that are underlined in the paragraph, those are the difficult words.
After you have read the whole paragraph and tried the hard words, you are going to find a partner and take turns reading the list of words at the bottom of the worksheet to each other.
Does anyone have any questions?
Feedback:
Say:
Who would like to share how to read the words? (Allow the students to share and go over the answers.)

Subject: ELA- Reading
Grade: 5
Lesson Objective: To explain what part of a text means while drawing inferences about that text
Common Core Standard: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.5.1- Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.
Materials:
Printable Student Worksheet Handout
Starter:
Say:
What are some situations in which you draw inferences? (Allow the students to answer.)
Main:
Say:
We all draw inferences. We do it every day when we are listening to someone speaking, when we are reading and when we are watching other people.
An inference is a conclusion that we make using things that we already know (prior knowledge) and new information.
An example of an inference is a mother giving her young child blueberries to try. The child puts the blueberry in its mouth, chews it and then spits it out. The mother can infer that the child does not like the blueberry.
Sometimes when we are reading, the text does not tell us exactly what we need to know. When that happens, we need to draw an inference.
A good strategy for drawing inferences is to think “It says, I know, so…”
When you do this, it helps you to think about what the text is telling you and what you already know. You are then able to draw an inference.
Sometimes, when you are explaining how you found the information that used when drawing your inference, you need to quote the text that you are using.
When quoting a text, you must use the author’s exact words and you should always use quotation marks.
If you are quoting a text from a book, you should always include the page number so that others can find the quote.
Now, you are going to be reading a few paragraphs from a book. After you have finished reading, there are questions for you to answer. Remember to use the inference strategy and remember how to quote a text.
