Reading strategies help us learn to read better. There are strategies that we use before reading ( pre-reading strategies), during
reading, and after reading ( post-reading strategies). Today, we will learn how to preview a text before reading it. Previewing a Text:
Step 1: Look at the title and any sub-headings
Step 2: Look at any pictures, charts, and captions.
Step 3: Look at any vocabulary or words written in bold.
Let’s preview then read this story together.

Ammar was sitting quietly on his desk staring at the design project that his Math teacher
asked them to complete. He was sad because he wanted to paint the shapes with his favourite colour, green, but there was not any green! At that moment his grandma walked into his room and saw him looking sad and asked:
“Ammar, what’s wrong?”
“I ran out of the colour green and it’s too late to buy new paint!” said Ammar.
“Let me tell you a short story that might help you think differently about your problem, Ammar.” Grandma said excitedly. “A hundred years ago, somewhere in Italy, there lived a couple who had a son, named Anthony. They borrowed money from a rich man and could not repay the debt.

sedraandanas — 2021-04-01 15:21:16 UTC

The rich man was a very stingy man and wanted a servant to help him, but he did not want to waste money paying someone’s
salary. So, he decided to go to the couple’s house and trade the amount of money they owned for their son’s work. The rich man
went to the couple and demanded that their son, Anthony, work for him for free. He said he would come back the next day to
take Anthony away or else they should have the money ready. Anthony heard this and was very upset. The next day, the rich man
headed back to the couple’s house to take Anthony. When he arrived at the house, he heard Anthony refusing to accept the deal
that was offered. Anthony was ambitious and wanted to go to university. He did not want to waste time working for free. The
rich man then offered Anthony another deal. He told Anthony that he would have to pick a pebble from a bag, with two pebbles
inside. If he picked the black one, the debt would not be forgotten, and Anthony should work for him for free. If Anthony picked
the white pebble, the debt would be forgotten, and he would not need to work for the rich man for free. The rich man then bent down to pick two pebbles.

With that ending, Grandma told Ammar: “Remember do not limit yourself to only the options that you think you have. Sometimes you have to think out of the
box.” “Thanks, Grandma,” said Ammar, “Instead of thinking about the unavailable colour, I should start mixing blue and yellow to create the green colour!”“That’s my boy!” Grandma said with a smile.

Answer the following comprehension questions:
- What is thinking creatively or outside the box?
-Suggest a title for this story.
- If you were Anthony, how would you solve the problem? Share your answer with your classmates.

sedraandanas — 2021-04-01 15:45:14 UTC

While picking up the pebbles, Anthony noticed that the rich man picked two black pebbles and put them in the bag. He then
asked Anthony to pick a pebble from the bag. Anthony reached out and picked a pebble from the bag and before anyone could see what he had picked, he dropped the pebble on the ground with the other pebbles and said to the rich man: “Oh, it slipped from my hand! Don’t worry...if you look into the bag to see which pebble is left, you
would be able to tell which one I picked.” The rich man was sure that the pebble in the bag was obviously black. And because he didn’t want to be seen as a cheater, he
had to play along as if the pebble that Anthony dropped was white. So, the money lender was forced to forget about the debt.”

We are all writers because as humans we need to write for different purposes and audiences. However, good writing is a skill that needs practice. This week we will practice writing by imagining that we are marine biologists.
A marine biologist is a scientist who studies life in the sea.

1) Let’s practice planning our writing with this activity about purpose. Use the information provided to plan writing. An example has been done for you.* ( adapted from education.com)
Example
Audience: Mom and Dad
Background: I would like to visit the aquarium with my friends.
Purpose: persuade

What is an eco-friendly house?

sedraandanas — 2021-05-08 07:36:09 UTC

An eco-friendly house is a house that is designed to be not harmful to the environment. It does not pollute land, air or water. An ecofriendly house reduces energy consumption and waste. It provides its own energy requirements, it deals with its own waste products without environmental damage, it saves water, reduces rubbish and provides most of the food and water requirements of its occupants.

2) Create a slogan!

sedraandanas — 2021-05-08 07:36:29 UTC

A slogan is a fun and easy way to remember a message aimed at persuading people to do something. An example can be: “Don’t be mean to Earth, be green!” or “Collect rainwater.”

sedraandanas — 2021-05-08 07:36:36 UTC

Now, it’s your time to spread a message about being more energy efficient. Come up with your own slogan to decorate a used T-shirt that you no longer wear. Make several ones and give them out to your family and friends! Be an energy efficiency activist.

Today we will look at organizational features of a non-fictional text and create a poster of these features.
1) Examine the following text features.

sedraandanas — 2021-05-20 18:16:19 UTC

2) Read the passage below then discuss it with a partner.

sedraandanas — 2021-05-20 18:16:25 UTC

It's a first! Solar plane goes around the world
For the first time, an airplane powered by the sun flew around the world. It landed in the city of Abu Dhabi last week.
The plane is called Solar Impulse 2. Its wings absorb power from the sun. Batteries on the plane store the power.
The batteries power the motor and propeller. Last spring, the plane took off in Abu Dhabi. It is in the Middle East. The plane crossed both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. It flew for more than 23 days using no gas.
During daylight, the wings charged the plane’s batteries using the sun. The pilot also soared high during the day and glided down at night. This saved power. The plane flies at about 30 miles an hour. It can go faster if the sun is bright.

sedraandanas — 2021-05-20 18:16:32 UTC

3) Re-design the passage by adding the text features above to it and display it on a poster paper. You can even research more about solar planes on the Internet. Also, you can research more text features such as “Did you
know” facts and borders.
