planted seeds.It makes me think about the materials I need to plant things,such as soil,seeds,water,and a pot.I know that these things are needed to grow plants.I wonder if growing tomatoes is the same as growing other plants.Invitestudentstosharehowtheyconnectedtopriorknowledge,basedonthecoversandtitlepage of the

the board as you describe them to students.Think-aloud:When I do something,I often seem to follow certain steps in a specific order.For example,when I do the laundry,first I gather all the dirty clothes.Next,I take them to the laundry room.Then I sort them by color and type.Next,I put them into the machines to wash and dry them.Last,I fold the clothes and put them away.I have a plan for how to do the laundry.Since I think this book is about growing tomatoes,I will think about the steps I will need to take to grow them and the order in which the steps are completed.As I read,I will look for words that describe these steps.Explaintostudentsthatcertainwordsareoftenusedtoexplainasequenceofevents.Read to students the list of events for doing laundry on the board in order,using words such

and fun to grow.Remindstudentstolookatthepictureandtheletterswithwhichawordbeginsorendstofigureoutadifficultword.Forexample,pointtothewordsoil on page 5 and say:I am going to check the picture and think about what would make sense to figure out this word.The picture shows a person planting a seed in the dirt.When I look at the first part of the word,it starts with/s/.However,the word dirt starts with the/d/sound,so this cant be the word.I know that another word for dirt is soil.The word soil starts with the/s/sound.It also ends with the/l/sound.The sentence makes sense with this word.The word must be soil.Grow Tomatoes in Six StepsLesson Plan(continued)LeveLG G3 Learning AZ All rights reserved.www.readinga-Set the Purpose
