Introduction to Unit 5
The content focus of Unit 5 is light and sound. Students will be learning
about the properties of light and sound, how light and sound travel, and
how light and sound can be manipulated.
During this unit’s spelling exercises, students will review words with
spelling patterns of /ee/ spelled ‘y’, ‘e’, ‘i’, ‘ea’, ‘ee’, ‘ie’, ‘ey’, and ‘e_e’ for
Lessons 1–5. For Lessons 6–10, students will review words with spelling
patterns of /ae/ spelled ‘ay’, ‘ai’, and ‘ea’. Finally, in Lessons 11–15,
students will review words with spelling patterns of /ae/ spelled ‘a_e’
and ‘a’. In addition, students will have two Challenge Words added to
each spelling list. Each week, students will continue to have the option of
trying to spell a content-related word on the weekly spelling assessment.
The Content Word may follow the spelling pattern for the week.
You will also continue to teach dictionary skills. As this unit progresses,
students should become proficient in the application of guide words. The
dictionary worksheets have been designed to provide ample practice. If
you find that there is insufficient time to complete every worksheet item,
you may select fewer items for each student to complete.
In grammar, students will review a part of speech introduced at the end
of Grade 2: adverbs ending with –ly that tell how an action takes place.
They will go further in their study of adverbs by also examining those
that tell when and where. Students will be introduced to conjunctions as
a new part of speech. They will learn the meanings and usages of the
conjunctions and and but.
During the morphology portion of the lessons, students will review the
suffixes –er, –or, –ist, –ian, –y, and –al. In addition, students will learn the
suffixes –ous and –ly. They will review how suffixes change the meaning
of root words. They will also review how suffixes added to a word can
change the part of speech of that word. Students will have opportunities
to apply their knowledge of the changed meaning of the words during
Workbook practice.

Spelling
Students will review sound-spelling patterns throughout the year. In the
first two weeks of this unit, there will be follow-up classroom spelling
activities two days a week.
In Lessons 1–5, students will review words with spelling patterns of /ee/
spelled ‘y’, ‘e’, ‘i’, ‘ea’, ‘ee’, ‘ie’, ‘ey’, and ‘e_e’. For Lessons 6–10, students
will review words with spelling patterns of /ae/ spelled ‘ay’, ‘ai’, and
‘ea’. Finally, in Lessons 11–15, students will review words with spelling
patterns of /ae/ spelled ‘a_e’ and ‘a’.
On the first day of each week, teachers should introduce the spelling list
by reproducing the table in Lessons 1, 6, and 11 on the board or chart
paper. Students should be told that this table will remain posted all week
for reference, but will be taken down prior to the assessment.
Challenge Words will also be introduced with each spelling list and
should be added to the table as they will be on the spelling assessment.
Challenge Words are words used very often. They may not follow spelling
patterns and need to be memorized. If needed, a guide to pronunciation
will be outlined when the Challenge Words are introduced.
The Content Word will continue. Each week, students will have the
option of trying to spell a content-related word on the weekly spelling
assessment. The Content Word may follow the spelling pattern for the
week, but will be more challenging than the other spelling words.
Students will continue to apply their skill of alphabetizing words in finding
and using guide words in the dictionary to locate words. Students will
also identify multiple definitions and parts of speech of entry words.
In Week 1, the spelling assessment will be a review of the past five
weeks. On the remaining weekly spelling assessments, students will
write the 18 assigned words as well as the two Challenge Words. The
Content Word is optional for students and will not count as incorrect
if not attempted or spelled incorrectly. As in previous units, students
will continue to correct their own spelling assessment. Some teachers
find it helpful to have students write the spelling assessment with a
pen. Then, they have students turn the pen back in to them and use a
pencil for corrections. In this way, teachers can more clearly see exactly
what errors students are making. Correcting their own errors heightens
students’ awareness of specific spelling errors and will solidify their
understanding of correct spelling. A classroom chart is provided for you

Unit 5  |  Introduction 3
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
at the end of each week so that you may analyze mistakes that students
are making. The results of this chart, paired with other classroom
observations, may help you identify students who would benefit from
targeted, remedial instruction in certain letter-sound correspondences,
using the Assessment and Remediation Guide.
Grammar
Grammar continues with a review and expansion of skills introduced
in second grade. Students will identify adverbs that tell how and
end with –ly, as well as other adverbs that tell when or where. They
will apply their new knowledge of adverbs by choosing whether the
descriptive word called for in a given sentence should be an adjective
or adverb. In the later part of the unit, students will also practice writing
increasingly detailed and expanded sentences using adjectives and
adverbs. Students will identify the word and as a new part of speech, a
conjunction, that means “plus, along with, or also.” They will also identify
the conjunction but, which signals “something different,” such as a
different idea that is coming next.
As an alternative to grammar worksheets with more challenging activities,
we recommend that the writing prompts found in the Teacher Resources
section at the back of this Teacher Guide and at the end of the Skills
Workbook.
Morphology
Throughout Grade 3, students will study word parts, such as prefixes,
suffixes, and root words, during the morphology portion of the lessons.
In this unit, students will review suffixes they have learned this year,
specifically –er, –or, –ist, –ian, –y, and –al. In addition, students will learn
the suffixes –ous and –ly. Students will learn that words that have the
suffix –ly are adverbs, which relates to what students are learning about
adverbs in Grammar. Students have done sufficient word work to be able
to apply what they have learned as they encounter unfamiliar words in
text and content.
Extension
During the first and second weeks of the unit, we have included a total of
three 30-minute periods for extension activities. Depending on students’
needs, please choose from the following activities:
• Extension activities provided in specific lessons

4 Unit 5  |  Introduction
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Extension activities provided in the Pausing Point
• Unit-specific writing prompts
• Assessment and remediation activities outlined in the Assessment
and Remediation Guide or remediation activities you deem
appropriate
• Reader’s Chair
• Reader’s Journal
In Lesson 6, an extension activity has been provided that includes doing
an activity described in Chapter 1 of Adventures in Light and Sound. In
Lessons 2 and 7, options have been provided for you to choose from
during that time.
Additionally, extension activities found in the Pausing Point are
highlighted in sidebars found in the lessons. These activities offer
additional practice of skills taught.
Writing prompts that are content-related and make use of the unit’s
academic vocabulary are found in the Teacher Resources section at the
back of this Teacher Guide and at the end of the Skills Workbook. These
prompts can be assigned for those students who need more challenging
work.
The Assessment and Remediation Guide offers targeted, remedial
instruction in certain letter-sound correspondences for students you
identify as needing more support.
Reader’s Chair is a way for students to practice reading with fluency
and expression (prosody). Place a copy of the sign-up sheet, found in
the Teacher Resources section of this Teacher Guide, in a designated
location in your room. Have students volunteer to read teacher-approved
texts by placing their name on the sign-up sheet. Audience guidelines
should be established for all students. These are some ideas but you will
want to make guidelines that work for your students: Listen respectfully
to your classmates; listen without talking; and have students give
classmate(s) who read(s) a round of applause and sincere compliments
on their reading. Model compliments by saying, “I liked it when you...”
Reader’s Journal asks students to read silently for a designated amount
of time and then respond to a writing prompt that you provide from
the list found in the Teacher Resources section at the back of this
Teacher Guide and at the end of the Skills Workbook. This exercise is an

Unit 5  |  Introduction 5
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
opportunity for independent reading time beyond the daily selection from
the Reader. It is an excellent way to ensure that each student is engaged
and responding to text, while allowing you to monitor students’ silent
reading. Establish Reader’s Journal procedures for your class. Here are
some suggested procedures you may find useful: Make sure all students
have the material to be read and paper and pencil; set a timer for 10
minutes for the reading portion; when the reading is completed, read the
chosen writing prompt to students; set a timer again for 12 minutes for
the writing portion; and expect students to stay in their seats and work
for the duration. You may wish to conference with students during this
time as the rest of the class will be engaged in an independent activity. A
Reader’s Journal conference sheet can be found at the end of the Skills
Workbook.
Reader: Adventures in Light and Sound
The nonfiction Reader for Unit 5, entitled Adventures in Light and Sound,
consists of selections describing the science behind light and sound.
Students will read about light sources, shadows, mirrors, reflection,
refraction, lenses, and color. They will also study the characteristics of
sound, as well as the human voice. Later chapters include information
about light and photography as well as biographies of two famous
inventors who worked with light and sound, Alexander Graham Bell and
Thomas Edison. It is important that you discuss the characteristics of the
biography genre and stress that biographies are nonfiction since they are
factual accounts of people’s lives.
Students will take home text copies of the chapters throughout the unit.
Encouraging students to read a text directly related to this domain-based
unit will provide content and vocabulary reinforcement.
In this unit, students will focus on four academic vocabulary words:
graphic, figure, instructions, and invent. By academic vocabulary, we
mean words that support reading comprehension and may appear
across a variety of materials, in language arts and in content areas.
These words can be found in textbooks, assignment directions, and
assessments. Understanding academic vocabulary may contribute to
improved performance on assignments and assessments, as these
words often appear in directions to students. These words may appear
on end-of-year assessments that third graders may take. Where
applicable, we use the words throughout the unit, not just as they might
refer to reading selections but also with regard to spelling, grammar,

© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
morphology, and comprehension. They may also appear in directions,
assessments, spelling lists, and discussion questions, among other
places.
• We define graphic to mean pertaining to the use of diagrams, graphs,
drawings, or maps.
• A figure as an image.
• Instructions are directions.
• To invent is to create or design something new.
We encourage you to define these words for students and use all four of
these words throughout the school day so that students may experience
multiple uses of them.
We recommend that teachers study the core content objectives related
to light and sound listed in the Tell It Again! Read-Aloud Anthology
for this domain-based unit. The selections that students will read in
Adventures in Light and Sound will reinforce and solidify the overall
acquisition of knowledge related to this domain. You will find that many
materials introduced in the Listening & Learning Strand, such as the
individual Image Cards and the classroom T-chart that you will create
following each read-aloud, will also be good resources as students read
the various chapters of this Reader.
Fluency Packet
A fluency packet consisting of poetry, folklore, and fables is provided
online at http://www.coreknowledge.org/G3-FP. These additional text
selections provide opportunities for students to practice reading with
fluency and expression (prosody). The selections can be used in any
order. At the beginning of the week, the teacher should make sufficient
copies of the week’s selection for each student. The teacher should
take time to read the selection aloud to all students. Then, students take
the selection home to practice reading aloud throughout the week. The
expectation for all students should be that they are prepared to read the
selection fluently and with prosody by Friday. At the end of the week, the
teacher should select a few students to individually read the selection
aloud. Teachers may also wish to have a few students choral read the
selection. Be sure to provide opportunities for different students to read
aloud each week.

Unit 5  |  Introduction 7
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
You will want to establish audience guidelines for all students. These
are some ideas but you will want to make guidelines that work for your
students:
• Listen respectfully to your classmates.
• Listen without talking.
• Ask students to give their classmate(s) a round of applause and
sincere compliments on their reading. Model compliments by saying,
“I liked it when you...”
Vocabulary Cards
Vocabulary Cards will be used again to reinforce the vocabulary listed
in the glossary for Adventures in Light and Sound. We highly encourage
you to display either side of the Vocabulary Cards in your classroom, in
addition to hanging the corresponding image from the chapter above the
list of Vocabulary Cards.
Skills Workbook
The Skills Workbook contains worksheets that accompany the lessons
from the Teacher Guide. Each worksheet is identified by its lesson
number and where it is intended to be used. For example, if there are two
worksheets for Lesson 8, the first will be numbered 8.1 and the second
8.2. The Skills Workbook is a student component, which means each
student should have a Skills Workbook.
A copy of the glossary is included at the end of the Workbook, so
students can take it home to use when reading text copies of the
chapters of the Reader.
For the first time in Grade 3, you will help students complete graphic
organizers as they read. There are two graphic organizers for this unit,
the Light Bulb Organizer and the Bell Organizer. Intermediate keys of
each organizer are found on the last page of appropriate lessons in this
Teacher Guide. The student version of the Light Bulb Organizer is found
at the beginning of the Skills Workbook on Worksheet 1.1. The student
version of the Bell Organizer is found on Worksheet 9.1. As students
read the chapters in this unit, you will direct and assist them in adding
information to these organizers using the Teacher Guide’s Guided
Reading Supports in each lesson. These organizers are included as a
way to help students understand the overall concepts related to light and
sound. Please be sure that students keep the Light Bulb Organizer and

8 Unit 5  |  Introduction
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
the Bell Organizer in the Skills Workbook to access as they read each
chapter about light and sound.
Student Performance Task Assessments
There are many opportunities for informal assessment throughout each
Skills unit. Careful analysis of student performance on the weekly spelling
assessments may provide insight into specific gaps in student code
knowledge. In addition, you may choose to assign a given Workbook
page for individual, independent completion to use as an assessment. It
may be helpful to use the Tens Conversion Chart and the Tens Recording
Chart found in the Teacher Resources section at the back of this Teacher
Guide to collect and analyze all assessment data.
A unit assessment of the morphology, grammar, and dictionary skills
taught is included in Lesson 13, along with an assessment of silent
reading comprehension using “Tuning Forks” and “Hearing Aids,” two
nonfiction selections, and “The Bell of Atri,” a fiction selection.
You may also want to take periodic measurements of students’ fluency
levels. You may use either “Pupils,” the selection included for fluency
assessment, or any of the additional chapters in the Reader for this
purpose. Recording and scoring sheets for “Pupils” have been included
in the Skills Workbook. Assessing fluency requires that you listen to
students read orally one-on-one and can be time consuming. You may
want to focus on assessing those students whom you believe may be at
highest risk.
Note: Students’ mastery of the domain content, light and sound, is
assessed using the Listening & Learning Domain Assessment(s).
Pausing Point
Resources are provided in the Pausing Point for additional practice on
the specific grammar, dictionary, and morphology skills taught in this
unit. Teachers should select exercises and worksheets based on student
performance on the unit assessment.
In addition, directions are also included for introducing and discussing
each of the additional chapters in the Reader.
Teacher Resources
At the back of this Teacher Guide, you will find a section titled, “Teacher
Resources.” In this section, we have included assorted forms and charts
that may be useful.

Advance Preparation
If you wish, you may draw the spelling table on the board or chart paper
before you begin to teach this lesson.

‘y’ > /ee/ ‘e’ > /ee/ ‘i’ > /ee/ ‘ea’ > /ee/ ‘ee’ > /ee/ ‘ie’ > /ee/ ‘ey’ > /ee/ ‘e_e’ > /ee/

Note to Teacher
During this unit, you will review spelling alternatives for the /ee/ and /ae/
sounds. For Lessons 1–5, you will review all eight spelling alternatives for
/ee/ that were practiced separately in Unit 4. For Lessons 6–10, you will
review some of the spelling alternatives for /ae/: ‘ay’ as in day, ‘ai’ as in
wait, and ‘ea’ as in great. For Lessons 11–15, you will review the following
spelling alternatives for /ae/: ‘a_e’ as in cake and ‘a’ as in paper. Students
should be familiar with most of these spelling alternatives as they were
taught in Grade 2.
The following chart is provided for your review:

Spellings for the Sound /ee/


100 (29%) Spelled ‘y’ as in funny
(24%) Spelled ‘e’ as in me
80
(13%) Spelled ‘i’ as in ski
60 (11%) Spelled ‘ea’ as in beach
(9%) Spelled ‘ee’ as in bee
40
(8%) Spelled ‘ie’ as in cookie
20
(2%) Spelled ‘ey’ as in key
(1%) Spelled ‘e_e’ as in Pete
0 (3%) All other spellings

Here are some patterns for you to be aware of:


• This is one of the hardest sounds to spell.
• ‘ee’ and ‘ea’ are used in many one-syllable words, most often
followed by a consonant spelling ( jeep, peek, peak, heap).
• ‘e’ is typically used as a spelling for /ee/ at the end of a syllable (with
the exception of a handful of words: be, she, we, he, me).

12 Unit 5  |  Lesson 1
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• ‘e_e’ can be seen as a variation of the basic code spelling ‘ee’ in
which the two ‘e’s are separated by a consonant spelling.
• ‘ie’ can be used as an occasional spelling for /ee/ in some words,
such as movie, chief, field.
• ‘ey’ is found primarily at the end of a word or syllable.
• ‘y’ is generally used at the end of words; it is used in suffixes to mark
adjectives (funny, silly) and adverbs (slowly, quickly).
• The ‘y’ ending in many words changes to ‘i’ when a suffix that begins
with a vowel is added: funny > funnier, sunny > sunniest.
• The ‘y’ ending in many words changes to ‘ie’ when ‘s’ is added (either
to mark a plural or show a change in person): puppy > puppies,
lady > ladies, I carry > he carries.
• The ‘y’ spelling also changes when –ed is added: carry > carried,
rally > rallied.
• There are four spellings for /ee/ that are used either exclusively or
almost exclusively in multi-syllable words: ‘y’ as in funny, ‘i’ as in
radio, ‘ey’ as in monkey, and ‘e’ as in prefix (with the exception of a
handful of words: be, she, we, he, me).
• The spelling ‘i’ is the only spelling that regularly appears before
another vowel spelling: accordion, historian, funniest, interior, radio,
piano.
• There are two minor spellings for the /ee/ sound that are not taught in
third grade: ‘ei’ as in either and ‘i_e’ as in machine.
Note to Teacher
In this unit, students will focus on four academic vocabulary words,
two of which are graphic and figure. By academic vocabulary, we mean
words that support reading comprehension and may appear across a
variety of materials, in language arts and in content areas. These words
can be found in textbooks, assignment directions, and assessments.
Understanding academic vocabulary may contribute to improved
performance on assignments and assessments, as these words often
appear in directions to students. These words may appear on end-of-
year assessments that third graders might take. Where applicable, we
use the words throughout the unit, not just as they might refer to reading
selections but also with regard to spelling, grammar, morphology, and
comprehension. They may also appear in directions, assessments,

Unit 5  |  Lesson 1 13
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
spelling lists, and discussion questions, among other places.
• We define graphic to mean pertaining to the use of diagrams, graphs,
drawings, or maps.
• A figure is an image.
We encourage you to define these words for students and use both of
these words throughout the school day so that students may experience
multiple uses of them.

Reading Time 45 minutes


Whole Group: “What Is Light?”
Introducing the Reader
• Make sure that each student has a copy of the Reader, Adventures in
Light and Sound.
• Have students turn to the Table of Contents.
• Either read several chapter titles from the Table of Contents aloud to
Chapter 1
students or have students read them.
• Give students a few moments to flip through the Reader and
comment on the images they see.
• Ask students if they have any predictions about what the Reader
might be about.
Introducing the Light Bulb Organizer
Worksheet 1.1
Remember to use For the first time in Grade 3, you will help students complete a graphic
academic vocabulary
when appropriate:
organizer as they read. A completed version of this organizer, called the
graphic and figure. Light Bulb Organizer, is found at the end of Lesson 8 in this Teacher
Guide. Intermediate guides are included at the end of Lessons 1, 3, 5,
and 6. The student version is found on Worksheet 1.1. As students read
Chapters 1–5, you will direct and assist them in adding information to this
organizer using the Teacher Guide’s Guided Reading Supports in each
lesson. This organizer is included as a way to help students understand
the overall concepts related to light. Students will complete a similar
organizer during their study of sound later in the unit. Please be sure
that students keep the Light Bulb Organizer in their Workbook to access
when reading Chapters 1–5.

14 Unit 5  |  Lesson 1
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students to turn to Worksheet 1.1. Tell students that this is the
Light Bulb Organizer and that they will use it to help them understand
what they learn about light.
• Ask students to look over the organizer and note its features. (the
shape at the top of the page, the questions, and the sections of the
organizer)
• Tell students that as they read the chapters about light in this unit,
you will help them fill in the organizer. The organizer will help them
remember what they learn about light. Tell them that when they
have read all the chapters about light, the organizer will be complete
and students will have something to keep with the information they
learned.
Introducing the Chapter
• Tell students that the title of today’s chapter is “What Is Light?” Tell
them that they will learn many interesting facts about light.
• Ask students to turn to the Table of Contents, locate the chapter, and
then turn to the first page of the chapter.
Previewing the Vocabulary
• As in previous units, we recommend the use of the provided
Vocabulary Cards. Preview specific Vocabulary Cards immediately
before students are asked to read the page(s) on which they appear.
The page number where the word first appears in “What Is Light?” is
listed in bold print after the definition. A word in parentheses after the
definition is another form of the vocabulary word that appears in the
chapter. An asterisk after a word indicates the word is also taught in
Listening & Learning.
• Although students should be decoding independently, the words are
divided into syllables for your convenience, with any unusual letter-
sound correspondences also noted. If needed, assist students in
decoding these words using the established procedures described in
detail in the earlier Grade 3 units.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 1 15
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Vocabulary for “What Is Light?”
1. source*—a starting place, where something comes from
(sources) (6)
2. en|er|gy*—a supply of power (6)

wavelengths and includes all the colors we can see (10)
8. e|lec|tri|ci|ty—energy carried over wires (electric) (12)

Guided Reading Supports and Purpose for Reading


Note: It is important that you stop frequently to ask students
questions and check for their understanding of the material, much
in the same way you use the Guided Listening Supports in Listening
& Learning. It is critical that you clear up any misunderstandings
that students may have as you teach each chapter so that the
misunderstandings do not compound over time.
• Be sure to call students’ attention to and discuss the images
accompanying the text, as they often reinforce understanding of the
text. Make sure students also read each caption.

Pages 6–7
• Read the title of the chapter together as a class, “What Is Light?”
• Display the image for this chapter and the Vocabulary Card for
source.
• Ask students, “Where in the Reader could we find the definition of
source quickly?” (the glossary)
• Ask students to tell you how to find the word in the glossary. Call on
one student to identify where the word is and read the definition. Note
for students that sources is also used in this chapter.

16 Unit 5  |  Lesson 1
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Display the Vocabulary Cards to preview energy and wavelength and
discuss the definitions. Note for students that wavelengths is also
used in this chapter.
• Have students read page 6 to themselves to find out more about
energy.
• When students have finished reading, ask them “What do you think
of when you think of something with a lot of energy?” (Answers may
vary.)
• Direct students’ attention to the image and caption on page 7.

Pages 8–9
• Display the Vocabulary Cards to preview vacuum, speed, and wave
and discuss definitions. Note for students that waves is also used in
this chapter.
• Tell students to read pages 8–9 to themselves to find the answer to
the question: “What do waves have to do with light?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Answers may vary but should include that one of
the ways light travels is in waves.)
• Say to students, “Describe light’s speed and how it compares to the
speed of other things.” (Light travels at 186,000 miles every second in
a vacuum and at that speed, it can go around Earth more than seven
times every second. Not even a jet plane or a rocket can go that fast.)
• Then, say to students, “Describe wavelengths.” (Light can be
measured in wavelengths. They can be different sizes. Some are
visible and some are not, depending on the size.)
Note: Thoroughly discuss the concept of measuring light in waves
and wavelengths, referring to the image and caption on page 9.
• Ask, “Can we see all kinds of light?” (No, some light waves are visible
and some are invisible.)
• Ask, “What determines whether light can be seen?” (wavelengths)
• Guide students in adding the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To answer the question “What is it?”: ENERGY
• To answer the questions “How do we get it? What is the
source?”: Draw a picture of the sun. Caution students to draw the
sun small enough to leave room for other light sources.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 1 17
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• To answer the question “How fast does it travel?”: 186,000
MILES PER SECOND in a vacuum.
• To answer the question “How does it travel?” Draw a wavy line to
indicate that light can travel in waves.

Pages 10–11
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview white light and discuss its
definition.
• Have students read page 10 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “What is white light?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and call on
a student to answer. (White light is the type of light that comes from
the sun. It includes wavelengths of every visible color.)
• Point out to students that even though the kind of light coming from
the sun is white light, the sun itself looks yellow. Ask students to
explain why. (There is a little more of the yellow wavelengths than the
other wavelengths in the sun’s light so the light looks yellow against a
blue sky.)
• Direct students’ attention to the image and caption on page 11.

Pages 12–13
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview electricity and discuss its
definition. Note for students that electric is used in this chapter.
• Direct students’ attention to the image on page 13. Have one student
read the caption to the class.
• Ask students to read page 12 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “What other sources of light can you think of, besides the
sun?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and ask
students to answer. (Answers may vary but should include light bulbs,
flashlights, candles, stars, or fireflies.)
• Ask students, “What else in the sky, besides the sun, provides light
and what in the sky does not provide light?” (Stars in the night sky
provide light that is not as bright as the sun. The moon does not give
off its own light.)

18 Unit 5  |  Lesson 1
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Have students add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the questions “How do we get it? What is the
source?”: Draw a star, a light bulb, a candle, and a flashlight.

Pages 14–15
• Ask students to read page 14 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “What would Earth be like without the light and heat energy
from the sun?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and ask
students to answer. (Answers may vary but should include that Earth
would be freezing cold, plants would not be able to grow, and it would
be impossible to see anything.)
• Ask students, “How would our lives be different without light?”
(Answers may vary.)
Wrap-Up
• Review with students what they added to the Light Bulb Organizer
while reading this chapter.

Spelling 35 minutes
Introduce Spelling Words
• Tell students that this week, they will review all the spellings of /ee/.
• As you introduce each of the spelling words, write it on the board,
pronouncing each word as you write it.

• Go back through the list of words, having students read the words
and tell you what letters to circle for the sound of /ee/.

1. succeeded 12. degree


2. money 13. athlete
3. enemy 14. chief
4. centipede 15. grease

10. tedious Content Word: electricity
11. fancy

• Point to the Challenge Words on the board. Explain to students that


the Challenge Words, almost and really, are also part of their spelling
list and are words used very often. Almost does not follow the spelling
patterns for this week but really does, as the ‘ea’ and the ‘y’ in really
are pronounced /ee/. Use the Challenge Words in sentences as
examples for students: “Bill ate almost all of his lunch.” “He really was
not very hungry.”

20 Unit 5  |  Lesson 1
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Remind students that this week, they once again have a Content
Word. Review with them that the Content Word is a little harder than
the other words. (If students try to spell the Content Word on the
assessment and do not get it right, they will not be penalized. Simply
correct it as you do the other words and applaud their effort. There
should not be a penalty for not trying or misspelling the Content
Word. The important thing is that they tried something that was a
stretch for them academically.)
• Tell students that the Content Word, electricity, does follow the
spelling patterns for this week as the first ‘e’ and the ‘y’ are
pronounced /ee/. Electricity is a content-related word defined as
energy carried over wires, which is found in Chapter 1 of Adventures
in Light and Sound.
• Now, draw the following table on the board:

‘y’ > /ee/ ‘e’ > /ee/ ‘i’ > /ee/ ‘ea’ > /ee/ ‘ee’ > /ee/ ‘ie’ > /ee/ ‘ey’ > /ee/ ‘e_e’ > /ee/

• Remind students that this lesson is a review of the /ee/ spelling


alternatives from Unit 4. Ask students to refer to the spelling
alternatives for /ee/ on the Individual Code Chart page 3. Point out
that there are eight spellings for /ee/. Note that with so many different
spellings for /ee/, this is often a difficult sound to spell correctly.
• Ask students to tell you which words to list under the ‘y’ < /ee/
header. Briefly explain the meaning of each word.
• Continue through the columns until all words have been listed under
the appropriate /ee/ header. Note that tedious, really, and electricity
go under two headers. Briefly explain the meaning of each word.
• Remind students that they have spelling words that use all eight of
the different spelling alternatives for /ee/. Students may need to spend
extra time at home practicing these words to be ready for the spelling
assessment on Friday.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 1 21

• Practice the words as follows during the remaining time. Call on a


student to read any word on the table. Then, have the student orally
use the word in a meaningful sentence. After the student says the
sentence, have him/her ask the class: “Does that sentence make
sense?” If the class says, “Yes,” then the student puts a check mark
in front of the word and calls on another student to come to the front
and take a turn. If the class says, “No,” have the student try again or
call on another student to come to the front and use the word in a
meaningful sentence. This continues until all of the words are used or
time has run out.
• Tell students that this table will remain on display until the assessment
so that they may refer to it during the week.
• Tell students they will take home Worksheet 1.2 with this week’s
spelling words to share with a family member.

Take-Home Material

Discussion Questions on “What Is Light?”


1. Literal  What aspect of light waves do scientists measure? (how
long light waves are)
2. Literal  What are some characteristics or features of light waves?
(They can be different sizes. Some are visible and some are
invisible. They can be seen as different colors.)

Grammar 25 minutes
Adverbs That Tell how and End With –ly
• Tell students that this week, they will review another part of speech,
adverbs, that was introduced in second grade.
• Direct students to the adverbs poster you prepared in advance. Read
the poster with students. Display the poster in your room with the
other parts of speech posters that you have already displayed.
Worksheet 2.2 Adverbs
For additional practice, Adverbs are words that can describe verbs.
see Pausing Point
Worksheet PP9. • They can tell how the action of a verb happens.
• Ask students if they can recall what other part of speech they have
studied is also a “describing word.” (Students should respond that
adjectives are words that describe nouns.)

26 Unit 5  |  Lesson 2
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Reiterate that adverbs are words that can describe verbs. Tell
students that the word adverb has the word verb in it, which may help
students remember which part of speech adverbs describe.
• Tell students that many adverbs end with –ly. Adverbs are often
created by adding –ly to an adjective.
• Tell students that the suffix –ly means “in a     way,” with the
blank being the adjective that –ly is added to. Adverbs with –ly
describe how the action of a verb happens.
• Write the word quiet on the board. Tell students that this is an
adjective. Ask students to provide several oral examples of phrases
with the adjective quiet describing different nouns (e.g., the quiet boy,
a quiet afternoon, etc.).
• Add –ly to quiet to make the adverb quietly. Quietly means “in a
quiet way” and describes how an action takes place. Ask students
to provide several oral examples of phrases with the adverb quietly
describing different verbs. (e.g., talk quietly, hum quietly, etc.)
• Read the first sentence you prepared in advance to students. Tell
students that an adverb needs to be added to the blank so that it
describes how the action takes place.

I     tapped my friend on the shoulder to ask him a question.

• Write the word soft on the board, telling students that it is an adjective
(e.g., soft pillow, soft towel, etc.) Tell students that the meaning of
the word soft makes sense in the above sentence, but soft must be
changed from an adjective to an adverb so that it describes the verb
tapped.
• Ask students if they have any idea how to change the adjective soft to
an adverb. (Students should respond “by adding –ly.”)
• Write the word softly in the blank. Reread the complete sentence to
students.
• Ask students to identify the verb and draw a wiggly line under the
word tapped.
• Ask students to identify which word describes how I tapped. (softly)
Draw a triangle around softly. Draw an arrow from the adverb to the
verb.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 2 27
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Follow the same procedures for the remaining sentences that you
prepared in advance. It is important to note for students that the
adverb may not be in the same place in every sentence. Point this out
when discussing the other sentences.
• Ask students to turn to Worksheet 2.2. Complete this as a teacher-
guided activity. Consider using the following procedures:
• Select a student to read aloud the first sentence.
• Ask students to identify the verb in the sentence and underline it
with a wiggly line.
• Ask students to read the adjective that will be changed to an
adverb for the sentence. (The adjective is listed under each blank.)
Then, ask them to say this word as an adverb and to write the
word in the blank.
• Ask students to explain how the adverb describes the verb, just
as they did with the sentences on the board. Tell them to a draw
a triangle around the adverb and an arrow from the adverb to the
verb.
• Then, ask students to answer the question after the sentence.
• Continue until students have completed the worksheet.

Introducing the Chapter
• Review with students what they learned in the previous chapter by
referring to the Light Bulb Organizer on Worksheet 1.1.
• Using the graphic organizer, remind students of the following:
Chapter 2
• Light is a form of energy.
• Sources of light include the sun, stars, light bulbs, candles, and
flashlights. (Students may also have included fireflies, fires, and
other sources that they learned about during Listening & Learning
read-alouds.)
• One way that light travels is in waves.
Worksheets 1.1, 3.1
• Light travels 186,000 miles per second in a vacuum.
Unit 5  |  Lesson 3 31

• Remind students that in an earlier Listening & Learning lesson in this
unit, they heard Jack and Samuel talk about shadows.
• Ask students to spend a few moments recalling what Jack and
Samuel said about shadows. (A shadow is the area of darkness that is
produced by an object or person that is blocking the light. Light cannot
bend around the object or person because it travels in straight lines.)
• Tell students that the title of today’s chapter is “How Are Shadows
Made?”
• Ask students to turn to the Table of Contents, locate the chapter, and
then turn to the first page of the chapter.
Previewing the Vocabulary

Use Adverbs
• Remind students that adjectives describe nouns and adverbs describe
verbs. Adding –ly to adjectives changes them to adverbs, which are
words that describe how the verb is completed.
• Display the first two sentences you prepared in advance.
• Ask students to read the first sentence (I took a quick shower.),
Worksheet 3.4 identifying the word quick as an adjective that describes the word
shower, which is a noun. Mark the noun and adjective with the
established symbols.
• Ask students to read the second sentence (We ran quickly to the car
when the storm started.), this time identifying the word quickly as an
adverb that describes the verb ran. Mark the verb and adverb with the
established symbols.
• Point out to students that it would be grammatically incorrect to say
“we ran quick” because the word that is being described is a verb.
Ask them to provide the correct form of the word for this sentence.
(quickly, adverb)
• Likewise, be sure that they understand that it would be grammatically
incorrect to say “I took a quickly shower” because the word being
described is a noun. Ask them to provide the correct form of the word
for this sentence. (quick, adjective)
• Use the same procedure for the remaining sentences that you
prepared in advance. It important to note for students that the adverb
may not be in the same place in every sentence. Point this out
when discussing the other sentences. Here is an answer key for the
remaining sentences:
• eager, adjective
• correct, adjective
• correctly, adverb
• loud, adjective
• loudly, adverb
• Ask students to turn to Worksheet 3.4. You may complete this as a

learned thus have all ended in the suffix –ly.
Adverbs
Worksheet 4.2
Adverbs are words that can describe verbs.
For additional practice,
see Pausing Point • They can tell how the action of a verb happens.
Worksheet PP10.
• They can tell when the action of a verb happens. (yesterday, today,
tomorrow, always, sometimes, never, early, first, next, last, again,
soon, later)
• They can tell where the action of a verb happens. (here, there,
everywhere, anyway, inside, outside, somewhere)
• Tell students that today, they will continue to work with adverbs.
However, the new adverbs do not end in –ly and so may be more
difficult for students to identify.
• Instead of telling how the action of a verb takes place, the adverbs
today describe when or where the action of the verb takes place.
• Read the adverbs that tell when listed on the poster with students.
• Use several adverbs that tell when from the poster in oral sentences
and ask students which word in each sentence tells when; emphasize
that this word is the adverb. If students have difficulty, repeat each
sentence and encourage students to look at the words on the
adverbs poster. For example:
• Tom and Bob will play baseball tomorrow. (Which word tells when?
tomorrow)
• I never eat chocolate. (never)
• I fell asleep early. (early)
• Display the “Adverbs That Tell when” sentences you prepared in
advance.
• Ask students to look at the list of when adverbs on the poster and
choose one that would fit in the blank of the first sentence.

44 Unit 5  |  Lesson 4
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• For each adverb suggested by students, ask them to first say the
complete sentence using their selected adverb. If the word makes
sense within the context of the complete sentence, write it in the
blank. (In some instances, more than one adverb may make sense.)
• Ask students which word in the sentence tells when. Draw a triangle
around the adverb and then draw an arrow from it to the verb it
describes.
• Follow these steps with the remaining when sentences you prepared
in advance. Here is a key:
• When did I play football with my friends? (yesterday)
• When do I play football with my friends? (always)
• When did he do his hardest homework assignment? (first/next)
• When did he do his homework? (again/later)
Where?
• Tell students that other adverbs can tell where.
• Point out the third bullet on the adverbs poster you displayed in
advance. Read the adverbs listed on the poster with students,
emphasizing that all of these words tell where something is
happening.
• Use several adverbs that tell where from the poster in oral sentences
and ask students which word in each sentence tells where; emphasize
that this word is the adverb.
• Display the “Adverbs That Tell where” sentences that you prepared in
advance.
• Ask students to look at the list of the where adverbs on the poster
and choose adverbs that would fit in the blank of the first sentence.
• For each adverb suggested by students, ask them to first say the
complete sentence using their selected adverb. If the word makes
sense within the context of the complete sentence, write it in the
blank. (In some instances, more than one adverb may make sense.)
• Ask students which word in the sentence tells where. Draw a triangle
around the adverb and then draw an arrow from it to the verb it
describes.

Reading Time 25 minutes
Whole Group: “Mirrors and Reflections”
Introducing the Chapter
• Review with students what they learned in the previous chapter by
referring to the Light Bulb Organizer on Worksheet 1.1.
• Using the graphic organizer, remind students of the following:
• Light travels in straight lines and can travel in waves.
Chapter 3
• Objects that most light can pass through are called transparent.
• Objects that light cannot pass through are called opaque.
• Shadows form when the light from a source is blocked by an
object.
• The closer an opaque object is to a light source, the larger the
Worksheets 1.1, 5.2 shadow.
• Remind students that in an earlier Listening & Learning lesson in this
unit, they heard Jack and Samuel talk about mirrors and reflections.
• Ask students to spend a few moments recalling what Jack and
Samuel said about mirrors and reflections. (When the surface of
an object is smooth and shiny like that of a mirror, light rays hit all
parts of the surface of that object at the same angle. Therefore, light
rays reflected by that object bounce back off it at the same angle.
Concave and convex mirrors reflect light in such a way that they
alter the view we see in them. Concave mirrors curve inward, away
from the viewer, and produce a magnified image if the object is close
enough to the mirror. Convex mirrors curve outward, toward the
viewer, and produce a smaller, wide angle image of an object.)
• Tell students that the title of today’s chapter is “Mirrors and
Reflections.”
• Ask students to turn to the Table of Contents, locate the chapter, and
then turn to the first page of the chapter.
Previewing the Vocabulary
• Following your established procedures, preview the vocabulary as
well as assist students who need help with decoding.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 5 51
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Vocabulary for “Mirrors and Reflections”
1. mir|ror*—a shiny surface that reflects light (mirrors) (32)
2. sur|face—the outside layer of something (32)
3. re|flect*—to throw back light, heat, or sound from a surface
(reflections, reflects, reflected, reflection) (32)
4. sil|ver|y—shiny or silver in color (34)
5. plane*—a more or less flat surface (34)
6. ka|lei|do|scope—a tube with plane mirrors and pieces of colored
glass that you hold up to the light and rotate to make colorful
patterns (36)
7. con|cave*—curved inward, like a spoon (38)
8. con|vex*—curved outward (38)
9. curve—to bend (curved, curves) (38)
10. dis|tort—to twist out of normal shape (distorted) (42)

Guided Reading Supports and Purpose for Reading

Pages 32–33
• Read the title of the chapter together as a class, “Mirrors and
Reflections.”
• Display the image for this chapter and the Vocabulary Cards to
preview mirror, surface, and reflect and discuss definitions. Note for
students that mirrors, reflections, reflects, reflected, and reflection are
used in this chapter.
• Point students’ attention to the image on page 33 and read the
caption, “Light reflected from the surface of this mirror allows the
dentist to see the back of this person’s teeth.”
• Remind students that in previous lessons, they learned that light
travels in straight lines and is stopped by opaque objects, creating
shadows.
• Ask students to read page 32 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “What happens when light hits a smooth, shiny surface?”
• When most students have finished reading, restate the question and
have students answer. (Light is reflected when it hits a mirror, which is
a smooth, shiny surface.)

52 Unit 5  |  Lesson 5
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students to add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What kind of object?”: Add the
words Shiny and Reflects in the third column.

Pages 34–35
• Display the Vocabulary Cards to preview silvery and plane and
discuss definitions.
• Draw students’ attention to the image on page 35. Say to students,
“I wonder what a mirror is made of. Let’s read page 34 to find out
more.”
• Ask students to read page 34 to themselves to fill in the blank in the
following sentence: “A mirror is made of    .”
• When students have finished reading, reread the sentence and ask
students to fill in the blank. (glass coated with hot, silvery metals)
• Have students look back at the image on page 35 and have them give
examples of the mirrors they may have in their homes. (Answers may
vary but could include a bathroom mirror, a mirror hanging on a wall,
a mirror on the back of a door, etc.)
• Tell students that most mirrors found in homes are called plane
mirrors. Ask, “What are plane mirrors?”
• Ask one student to read the sentence(s) that answer(s) the question.
(A plane mirror has a more or less flat surface. The reflection of
something in a plane mirror is almost the same size as the real
object.)
• Ask students to add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What happens when it hits…?”:
Add the words 1. Plane (flat, same) just below Reflects to show
that a plane mirror reflects an image in almost the same size as
the real object.

Pages 36–37
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview kaleidoscope and discuss its
meaning.
• Have students read pages 36–37 to themselves to find the answer to
the question: “What is a kaleidoscope?”

Unit 5  |  Lesson 5 53
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• When most students have finished reading, restate the question and
have students answer. (A kaleidoscope is a tube with plane mirrors,
tiny bits of colored glass, and beads inside.)
• Ask, “How does a kaleidoscope work?” (You look through a small
hole at one end of the kaleidoscope, point it toward the light, and
rotate the tube. Beautiful patterns appear, as seen in the image on
page 37.)

Pages 38–39
• Display the Vocabulary Cards to preview concave, convex, and curve
and discuss definitions.
• Ask students to read just the first paragraph on page 38 to
themselves to answer the question: “How are concave and convex
mirrors different from plane mirrors?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Plane mirrors are flat while concave and convex
mirrors are curved.)
• Ask, “Which way does a concave mirror curve?” (inward like a spoon)
Note: You may wish to tell students that concave has the word cave in
it. A way to remember which kind of mirror curves inward and which
curves outward is that concave mirrors curve inward, like walking into
a cave.
• Ask, “Which way does a convex mirror curve?” (outward)
• Next, have students read the second paragraph on page 38 to
themselves to answer the question: “How is the reflection of objects
in concave and convex mirrors different from the reflection of objects
in plane mirrors?”
• When students have finished reading the second paragraph, restate
the question and have a student answer. (The reflection of objects in
plane mirrors is about the same size as the object, while the reflection
of objects in concave and convex mirrors appears larger or smaller
than the real object.)
• Direct students’ attention to the images and caption on page 39.

Pages 40–41
• Draw students’ attention to the images on page 41 and have students
read the caption aloud.

54 Unit 5  |  Lesson 5
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Have students read the first paragraph on page 40 to themselves to
find the answer the question: “How can concave mirrors be used to
provide heat?” You may also wish to have students look carefully at
the diagram on page 41.
• After students have finished reading and looking carefully at the
image and the diagram, restate the question and have them talk about
their ideas with a partner before answering out loud. When ready,
have several students share their ideas. (Sunlight is a form of light and
heat energy. The large concave mirror in the image reflects the sun’s
energy so that people can warm their hands or bodies outside.)
• Draw students’ attention to the bottom image on page 41. Have them
also look carefully at the diagram beside that image.
• Have students read the remainder of page 40 to themselves to find
the answer to the question: “Why would a convex mirror be called a
safety mirror?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question, and call
on a student to read the sentences that answer the question. (The
convex mirror makes objects look smaller but shows a wider area so
you can see more. It helps the driver avoid hitting something he or
she might not see in the regular plane mirror.)
• Ask students to add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What happens when it hits…?”:
Write the words 2. Concave (curves inward, heats) 3. Convex
(curves outward, bigger, closer) below 1. Plane (flat, same) in the
third column.

Pages 42–43
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview distort and discuss its
definition. Note for students that distorted is also used in this chapter.
• Ask students to look at the image on page 43 and read the caption.
• Have students read pages 42–43 to themselves to answer the
question: “What sorts of mirrors would reflect this kind of image?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (They are concave and convex mirrors found in a
circus or carnival “funhouse” or “house of mirrors.”)

• While any of the above student-error scenarios may occur, you should
still be aware that misspellings may be due to many other factors. You
may find it helpful to record the actual spelling errors that the student
makes in the analysis chart. For example:
• Is the student consistently making errors on specific vowels?
Which ones?
• Is the student consistently making errors at the end of the words?
• Is the student consistently making errors on particular beginning
consonants?
• Did the student write words for each feature correctly?
• Also, examine the dictated sentences for errors in capitalization and
punctuation.

Advance Preparation
You may wish to draw the table for spelling on the board or on chart
paper before beginning to teach this lesson.
‘ay’ > /ae/ ‘ai’ > /ae/ ‘ea’ > /ae/

Note to Teacher
For Lessons 6–10, you will review some of the spelling alternatives for
/ae/: ‘ay’ as in day, ‘ai’ as in wait, and ‘ea’ as in great. For Lessons 11–15,
you will review the spelling alternatives for /ae/: ‘a_e’ as in cake and
‘a’ as in paper. Students should be familiar with most of these spelling
alternatives as they were taught in Grade 2.
The following chart is provided for your review:

Spellings for the Sound /ae/


100
(44%) Spelled ‘a’ as in paper
80 (25%) Spelled ‘a_e’ as in cake
(16%) Spelled ‘ai’ as in wait
60
(9%) Spelled ‘ay’ as in day
40 (1%) Spelled ‘ey’ as in hey
(1%) Spelled ‘ea’ as in great
20
(1%) Spelled ‘eigh’ as in weight
0
(3%) All other spellings

Here are some patterns for you to be aware of:


• ‘ai’ is generally used in the initial position (aim, aid) or the medial
position (pail, paint) and is almost always followed by a consonant
spelling. It is rarely used in the final position.
• ‘ay’ is generally used in the final position (say, pay); It is rarely found in
the initial position or the medial position.
• ‘ea’ is generally found in the medial position and is very rare.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 6 63
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Please have the following materials available for use during the Extension
lesson:
• a light source, such as a large flashlight with a strong beam or
projector
• several sheets of large white paper and a marker
• masking tape
• a blank wall
• a cardboard cutout of a tree
In this unit, students will focus on four academic vocabulary words, two
of which are instructions and invent. By academic vocabulary, we mean
words that support reading comprehension and may appear across a
variety of materials, in language arts and in content areas. These words
can be found in textbooks, assignment directions, and assessments.
Understanding academic vocabulary may contribute to improved
performance on assignments and assessments, as these words often
appear in directions to students. These words may appear on end-of-
year assessments that third graders may take. Where applicable, we
use the words throughout the unit, not just as they might refer to reading
selections but also with regard to spelling, grammar, morphology, and
comprehension. They may also appear in directions, assessments,
spelling lists, and discussion questions, among other places.
• Instructions are directions.
• To invent is to create or design something new.
We encourage you to define these words for students and use both of
these words throughout the school day so that students may experience
multiple uses of them.

Reading Time 25 minutes
Whole Group: “Refraction and Lenses”
Introducing the Chapter
• Review with students what they learned in the previous chapter by
referring to the Light Bulb Organizer on Worksheet 1.1.
• Using the graphic organizer, remind students of the following:
• Mirrors are shiny objects that reflect light.
Chapter 4
• A plane mirror is one with a more or less flat surface
• A concave mirror is one with an inward curve.
• A convex mirror is one with an outward curve.
• Remind students that in an earlier Listening & Learning lesson in this
unit, they heard Jack and Samuel talk about refraction and lenses.
Worksheet 1.1 • Ask students to spend a few moments recalling what Jack and
Samuel said about refraction and lenses. (When a light wave suddenly
Remember to use
academic vocabulary changes speed, it changes the direction of the light wave and makes
when appropriate: it look like it’s bending. This is called refraction. The refraction of light
instructions and
invent. is how lenses work. A convex lens curves outward and is thicker
in the middle than at the edges. Rays of light passing through this
kind of lens are forced to change direction and move towards each
other, making things look bigger. That’s why convex lenses are used
in microscopes, binoculars, and telescopes. On the other hand, a
concave lens curves inward and is thinner in the middle than at the
edges. Light rays passing through this kind of lens are forced to
change direction and move away from each other so a wide-angled
image of an object or scene is produced.)
• Tell students that the title of today’s chapter is “Refraction and
Lenses.”
• Ask students to turn to the Table of Contents, locate the chapter, and
then turn to the first page of the chapter.
Previewing the Vocabulary
• Following your established procedures, preview the vocabulary as
well as assist students who need help with decoding.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 6 65
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Vocabulary for “Refraction and Lenses”
1. re|fract*—the appearance of light bending when it moves from
one medium to another (refraction, refracting, refracts) (44)
2. lens*—a clear piece of curved glass or plastic that is used to
make things look clearer, larger, or smaller (lenses) (44)
3. dense—thick, heavy (denser) (46)
4. an|gle*—the space formed when two lines or surfaces meet (48)
5. mag|ni|fy—to make something look larger or sound louder
(magnified, magnifies) (52)

Guided Reading Supports and Purpose for Reading

Pages 44–45
• Read the title of the chapter together as a class, “Refraction and
Lenses.”
• Display the image for this chapter and the Vocabulary Cards to
preview refract and lens and discuss definitions. Note for students
that refraction, refracting, refracts, and lenses are also used in this
chapter.
• Ask students to read page 44 to themselves to review what happens
to light when it encounters different types of objects along its path.
• Next, draw students’ attention to the images on page 45 and read the
captions together.
• When students have finished reading, ask different students to explain
what happens when light hits a transparent, opaque, or shiny object.
Encourage students to use the domain vocabulary that they have been
learning in their response, e.g., absorb, shadow, reflect, etc. (When
light hits a transparent object, it passes right through the object. When
light hits an opaque object, the light is absorbed and blocked so a
shadow is made. When light hits a shiny object, it is reflected.)

Pages 46–47
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview dense and discuss its
definition. Note for students that denser is used in this chapter.
• Have students read pages 46–47 to themselves to find the answer to
the question: “Does light always travel at the same speed?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and
have students answer. (No, light slows down when it goes through
transparent objects that are dense or heavy.)
• Ask, “Which is denser or heavier, a piece of glass or water?” (glass)
• Ask, “Through which of these two transparent materials, glass or water,
will light travel faster?” (water) Ask, “Why?” (Water is a liquid and is less
dense than the glass, which is a solid.)
• Ask, “Which is heavier or denser, water or air?” (water)
• Ask, “Through which of these two transparent materials, water or air,
will light travel faster?” (air) Ask, “Why?” (Air is a gas and is less dense
than water, which is a liquid.)

Pages 48–49
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview angle and discuss its
definition.
• Direct students’ attention to the image on page 49. Read the caption
together as a class or have a student read it to the class.
• Say to students, “I wonder why the straw looks bent. Let’s read page
48 to find out more.”
• Ask students to read page 48 to themselves to find out more about
why the straw looks bent.
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (When light moves from one thing that is transparent
to something different that is transparent, it changes speed. When
light changes speed, the angle of the light rays changes and light
appears to bend.)
• Ask, “How does the speed of light moving from air to water cause the
straw to look bent?” (Light slows down as it moves from air to water.
As the light enters the water, it changes angle direction because it
slows down.)

Unit 5  |  Lesson 6 67

• Add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What happens when it
hits…?”: In the first column, add the words Passes but slows and
Refraction.

Pages 50–51
• Draw students’ attention to the image on page 51 and read the
caption.
• Ask students to read page 50 to themselves to find out what
eyeglasses have that helps to correct vision problems.
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Eyeglasses have lenses that refract light in different
ways.)
• Add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What kind of object?”: In the
fourth column, add the words Lenses, Clear, and Curved.

Pages 52–53
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview magnify and discuss its
definition. Note for students that magnified and magnifies are used in
this chapter.
• Ask students to read pages 52–53 to themselves to find the answer
to the question: “How do convex lenses change the way things look?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (When you look through a convex lens, an object will
look larger and closer. It looks magnified because the light rays are
closer together.)
• Add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What happens when it hits…?”:
In the fourth column, add the words Refraction, 1. Convex (curves
outward;. Caution students to leave space for more words below.
• Ask, “How does a concave lens change the way things look?” (A
concave lens refracts and spreads light rays apart. If you look through
a concave lens, an object will look smaller.)

68 Unit 5  |  Lesson 6
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What happens when it hits…?”:
In the fourth column, add the words 2. Concave (curves inward;.
Caution students to leave space for more words below.

Pages 54–55
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview magnifying glass and discuss
its definition.
• Ask students to read page 54 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “How does a magnifying glass make things look different?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (It is a convex lens and makes things look larger to
see details better.)
• Draw students’ attention to the images on page 55 and read the
caption with them.
• Add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What happens when it hits…?”:
In the fourth column, add the words magnifying glass) under

Pages 56–57
• Have students read pages 56–57 to themselves to find the answer
the question: “How do scientists use convex lenses?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (They use microscopes and telescopes, both of
which make objects appear larger and/or closer.)
• Draw students’ attention to the images on page 57 and read the
captions with them.

Page 58–59
• Display the Vocabulary Cards to preview the words security and
camera and discuss definitions.
• Have students read page 58 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “How are concave lenses used for security?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Security cameras provide a wider view of a place
and a peephole in a door allows a person to see who is at the door
before opening it.)
Unit 5  |  Lesson 6 69
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask, “Why are concave lenses used in peepholes?” (Concave lenses
spread out light rays and make items appear smaller so you can see
more of the person outside your door.)
• Draw students’ attention to the images on page 59 and read the
caption with them.
• Add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “What happens when it hits…?”:

7. explain 18. giveaway
8. mermaid 19. Challenge Word: family
9. great 20. Challenge Word: young
10. daydreams Content Word: straight
11. daisies

• Point to the Challenge Words on the board. Explain to students


that the Challenge Words, family and young, are also part of their
spelling list and are words used very often. Neither Challenge Word
follows the spelling patterns for this week. Use the Challenge Words
in sentences as examples for students: “My family is made up of my
mom, my dad, and me.” “We have a young puppy that is not trained
yet.”
• Remind students that this week, they once again have a Content
Word. Review with them that the Content Word is a little harder than
the other words. (If students try to spell the Content Word on the
assessment and don’t get it right, they will not be penalized. Simply
correct it as you do the other words and applaud their effort. There
should not be a penalty for not trying or misspelling the Content
Word. The important thing is that they tried something that was a
stretch for them academically.)
• Tell students that the Content Word, straight, does not follow the
spelling patterns for this week though the ‘aigh’ is pronounced /ae/.
Straight is a content-related word defined as without a bend or a
curve and describes light moving in straight lines.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 6 71
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Now, draw the following table on the board:
‘ay’ > /ae/ ‘ai’ > /ae/ ‘ea’ > /ae/

• Ask students to refer to the spelling alternatives for /ae/ on the


Individual Code Chart page 3. Point out that there are many
spellings for /ae/ and ask students to name the different letters used to
represent this sound.
• Ask students to tell you which words to list under the ‘ay’ > /ae/
header, the ‘ai’ > /ae/ header, and the ‘ea’ > /ae/ header. Briefly explain
the meaning of each word.
‘ay’ > /ae/ ‘ai’ > /ae/ ‘ea’ > /ae/
subway awaited great
payment explain breaker
ballplayers mermaid beefsteak

Challenge Word: family
Challenge Word: young
Content Word: straight

• Ask students to look at the Individual Code Chart for all of the
different spellings for /ae/.
• Ask students, “Of the seven spellings, which is used most
frequently?” (‘a’) Remind students to look at the power bar under the
spellings and the order in which they are sequenced to determine
frequency.
• Tell students that although you are not reviewing the most frequently
used spelling this week, they should remember that if ever they are
trying to spell a word with the /ae/ sound and really don’t know which
spelling is used, their best bet is probably to try the spelling ‘a’ since
it is the most frequent.

72 Unit 5  |  Lesson 6
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students to locate the three spellings for /ae/ in this week’s
spelling words and determine whether they are frequently used
spellings or not.
• Practice the words as follows during the remaining time. Call on a
student to read any word on the chart. Then have the student orally
use the word in a meaningful sentence. After the student says the
sentence, have him/her ask the class: “Does that sentence make
sense?” If the class says, “Yes,” then the student puts a check mark
in front of the word and calls on another student to come to the front
and take a turn. If the class says, “No,” have the student try again or
call on another student to come to the front and use the word in a
meaningful sentence. This continues until all the words are used or
time has run out.
• Tell students that this table will remain on display until the assessment
so that they may refer to it during the week.
• Tell students they will take home Worksheet 6.1 with this week’s
spelling words to share with a family member.

Extension 30 minutes

Wrap-Up
• Use the following questions to promote a discussion:

Discussion Questions on “Refraction and Lenses”


1. Literal  How are concave and convex lenses helpful? (They
both correct vision through eyeglasses. Also, scientists use
microscopes and telescopes that have convex lenses and
security cameras and peepholes that use concave lenses.)
2. Literal  What is refraction and how does it relate to how dense
something is? (the appearance of light bending when it moves
from one medium to another; The denser the medium, the slower
light travels. As light moves from traveling through a less dense
medium to a denser medium, it refracts or bends.)

78 Unit 5  |  Lesson 7
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Grammar 25 minutes
Build Sentences
• Tell students that during the past several weeks, they have been
learning about adverbs that describe verbs. They have learned that
adverbs ending in the suffix –ly can describe how the action of a
verb takes place—slowly, quickly, sadly, etc. They have also learned
other adverbs that describe when or where the action of a verb takes
place—today, soon, here, there, etc.
Worksheet 7.2
• Tell students that when describing words are added to sentences,
they make the sentences more interesting and informative. Ask
students what other part of speech, besides adverbs, are also
describing words (adjectives) and what they describe (nouns).
• Tell students that they are going to practice writing, or building, more
interesting sentences by including adjectives, adverbs, and other
kinds of words in sentences.
• Write the following sentence on chart paper or the board, asking
students to read the sentence aloud and to then identify the subject
and predicate of the sentence. Draw a line between the subject and
predicate. (The snake | moved.)
• Tell students that while this sentence is a complete sentence, it is not
a very interesting sentence and does not provide much information.
Continue by saying that you will show them how they can make a
more interesting sentence by adding adjectives, adverbs, and other
interesting words.
• One way to make the sentence more interesting would be to add an
adjective or two to describe the snake. Ask students to brainstorm
words that could be used to describe the snake, prompting them to
think of words to answer the question, “What did the snake look like?”
Write down the suggested adjectives in a list on the board or chart
paper.
• Another way to improve this sentence would be to add adverbs to
describe the verb. Ask students to brainstorm words that could be
used to answer the question, “How did the snake move?” Write these
adverbs in a separate list.
• Now, ask students to brainstorm words that could be used to answer
the question, “When did the snake move?” Write these adverbs
and/or phrases in a separate list.
Unit 5  |  Lesson 7 79
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Note: Be aware that students may brainstorm when adverbs, such as
yesterday, never, again, etc. that they have been specifically practicing
in earlier lessons in this unit. They may, however, also brainstorm
phrases such as in the morning, ten minutes ago, etc. A group of
words that tells when is technically called an adverbial phrase. It is
not necessary that your students know this grammatical term in third
grade. If they question whether these words are adverbs, you can tell
them that the phrase or group of words acts like an adverb.
• Now, ask students to brainstorm words that could be used to answer
the question, “Where did the snake move?” Write these adverbs and/
or phrases in a separate list.
Note: As previously noted, students may brainstorm where adverbs,
such as here, there, outside, etc., that they have been specifically
practicing in earlier lessons in this unit. They may also brainstorm
other phrases such as under a rock, near the lake, etc. These phrases
are also adverbial phrases, but it is not necessary that your students
know this grammatical term in third grade. If they question whether
these words are adverbs, you can tell them that the phrase or group
of words acts like an adverb.
• Now, encourage students to look at words in the brainstormed lists
and use one or more words to make a more interesting sentence. Call
on several students and write down the sample sentences provided,
so that students see that many different interesting sentences can be
created from the brainstormed lists.
• If someone does not think to add more than one adjective to describe
the snake and/or more than one adverb or adverbial phrase, model
these possibilities. For example, you might write, “The long, slippery
snake moved silently under the rock.”
• Finally, point to the word moved in each of the sample sentences and
tell students that another way to make more interesting sentences
is to use more descriptive vocabulary. Ask if students can think
of any other words that are synonyms of the word move, perhaps
words that might be more descriptive of a snake. (crawled, slithered,
wiggled, etc.) Ask them to read one of the sample sentences aloud,
substituting their new word, for example, “The long slippery snake
slithered silently under a rock.”

80 Unit 5  |  Lesson 7

can only be seen with special instruments (70)
7. re|mote con|trol—a device that uses infrared waves to operate
equipment, such as a TV, from a distance (70)

• After previewing the Vocabulary Cards, remind students that as they


are reading, if they do not recall the meaning of a word, they can
always look it up in the glossary.
• Before students start reading, take a few moments to go through the
chapter, looking at the images and reading the captions.

84 Unit 5  |  Lesson 8
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Tell students that they should read to find out how we can see color
from light. Tell them that they will add information to the Light Bulb
Organizer as a class after they finish reading.
• Have students complete Worksheet 8.1, taking notes as they read.
• As students read silently, you should circulate throughout the room,
lending assistance as needed.
• When students have finished reading, begin a class discussion about
the kinds of light to address the question “What kinds are there?” on
the Light Bulb Organizer.
• Have students add the following to the Light Bulb Organizer:
• To answer the question “What kinds are there?”: Write Visible
white light on the left side and Invisible on the right side.
• Below Visible white light, write red, orange, yellow, green, blue,
indigo, violet; You may wish to have students draw a rainbow with
the colors in the correct order.
• Below the list of colors, draw an arrow pointing down and write
reflects one, absorbs all others to note how we see something as a
certain color.
• Below Invisible, write ultraviolet rays (sunburn), infrared rays
(remote control), and x-rays (pictures of bones).
Wrap-up
• Have students review and discuss the information they added to the
Light Bulb Organizer.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 8 85
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Adding Suffix –ous
• Explain to students that –ous means “full of.”
• Tell students that in this part of the lesson, they will add the suffix
–ous to root words that are all nouns. When –ous is added to a noun,
the word becomes an adjective.
• Write the word joy on the board. Briefly discuss the meaning of the
word and then use it in a sentence. (a feeling of great happiness; At
the celebration, everyone was filled with joy.)
• Add the suffix –ous to joy and have students read the suffix, read the

Adding Suffix –ly
• Explain to students that –ly means “in a     way” with the blank
being the word that –ly is added to.
• Tell students that they will now add the suffix –ly to the words they
previously added –ous to. When –ly is added to an adjective, the word
becomes an adverb.
• Tell students that adverbs with –ly describe verbs, specifically how
a verb happens. Remind students that they learned about these
adverbs in Grammar earlier in this unit.
• Write the word dangerous on the board. Briefly discuss the meaning
of the word and then use it in a sentence. (full of the chance that
something bad will happen; The dangerous broken glass covered the
parking space.)

Comparing Sentences with Affixed Words


• Direct students’ attention to the first sentence you prepared in
advance:

The boy is filled with joy.

• Ask students, “What is the boy filled with?” They should respond joy.
Ask them for the part of speech (noun) and draw a circle around the
word joy.
• Then, display the next sentence:

The boy sang with a joyous voice.

• Ask students what the boy sang with. (voice) Draw a circle around
voice, stating that it is a noun.
• Ask students, “What kind of voice did the boy use?” ( joyous) Draw
a box around joyous and then draw an arrow to voice, stating that
joyous is an adjective that describes the noun voice.
• Now, display the next sentence:

The boy joyously sang the song.

Reading Time 25 minutes
Whole Group: “What Is Sound?”
Note to Teacher
The next several chapters introduce the concept of sound and its
characteristics. You will help students complete a graphic organizer
about sound as they read each chapter, just as you did with light. A
completed version of this organizer, called the Bell Organizer, is found on
the last page of Lesson 11 in this Teacher Guide. The student version is
Chapter 6
found on Worksheet 9.1. As students read Chapters 6–8, you will guide
them through adding information to this organizer using the Guided
Reading Supports in each lesson. This organizer is included as a way
to help students understand concepts and characteristics related to
sound. Please make sure that students keep the Bell Organizer in their
Workbook to access during each of Chapters 6–8 about sound.

Worksheets 9.1, 9.2 Introducing the Bell Organizer


• Ask students to turn to Worksheet 9.1. Tell students that this is the
Bell Organizer and that they will use it to help them understand what
they learn about sound. They will complete this in a similar fashion to
the Light Bulb Organizer.
• Ask students to look over the organizer and note its features. (the
shape beside the title, the questions, the different sections)
• Tell students that as they read the chapters in this unit about sound,
you will help them fill in the organizer. The organizer will help them
remember what they learn about sound. Tell them that when they
have read all the chapters about sound, the organizer will be complete
and students will have something to keep that summarizes the
information they learned.
Introducing the Chapter
• Tell students that the title of today’s chapter is “What Is Sound?” Tell
them that they will learn many interesting facts about sound.
• Ask students to turn to the Table of Contents, locate the chapter, and
then turn to the first page of the chapter.

96 Unit 5  |  Lesson 9
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Previewing the Vocabulary
• Following your established procedures, preview the vocabulary as
well as assist students who need help with decoding.

Vocabulary for “What Is Sound?”


1. vo|cal cords*—muscles that produce sound when air passes
over them (72)
2. sound wave*—a series of vibrations that can be heard (sound
waves) (74)
3. me|di|um*—a substance that light or sound can travel through,
like a solid, a liquid, or a gas (mediums) (74)

Guided Reading Supports and Purpose for Reading

Pages 72–73
• Read the title of the chapter together as a class, “What Is Sound?”
• Display the image for this chapter and the Vocabulary Card to preview
vocal cords and discuss its definition.
• Draw students’ attention to the picture on page 73 and read the
caption aloud.
• Ask students, “Why do you think there is a image of a person
humming in a chapter about sound?” (Answers may vary.)
• Have students read page 72 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “What causes sound?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and call on
a student to answer. (Sound is caused by vibrations, when something
moves back and forth very quickly.)
• Have students hum while feeling their throats just under the chin. Ask
them to pay attention to the “buzzing” feeling in their throats.
• Have students give you a thumbs up if they feel the “buzzing”
vibration.
• Ask, “What in your throats is causing the vibration?” (When you hum,
the vocal cords in your throat vibrate back and forth.)

Unit 5  |  Lesson 9 97
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Have students add the following to the Bell Organizer:
• To answer the question, “What is it?”: Write the word VIBRATION.

Pages 74–75
• Display the Vocabulary Cards to preview sound wave and medium
and discuss definitions. Note for students that sound waves and
mediums are used in this chapter.
• Direct students’ attention to the top image on page 75 and read the
caption aloud as a class.
• Say to students, “I wonder what sound waves are. Let’s read page 74
to find out more.”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Sound waves move out from a vibrating object,
making the air move back and forth in a way that we can’t see.)
• Ask, “What two things are needed to create sound?” (The two things
needed to create sound are something to vibrate and create sound
waves and something, like air or another medium, to carry the sound
waves.)
• Ask, “Why are some sounds easier to hear than others?” (The farther
away sound waves spread out from their source, the weaker they get.)
• Direct students’ attention to the bottom images on page 75 and ask
them to read the caption.
• Have students add the following to the Bell Organizer:
• To answer the question “How do we get it?”: Write VIBRATING
WAVES and draw a wavy line under the words.

Pages 76–77
• Ask students to read page 76 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “Through what mediums does sound travel?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Answers may vary but should at least include
solids, liquids, and/or gases.)
• Direct students’ attention to the images on page 77. Have one
student read the caption to the class.

98 Unit 5  |  Lesson 9
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students, “What is one place where sound cannot travel and why
is that so?” (Outer space is one place sound cannot travel because
outer space is a vacuum. Sound needs a medium to carry it and there
is no air in a vacuum.)
• Have students add the following to the Bell Organizer:
• To further answer the question, “How do we get it?”: Under the
wavy line, have students write the word medium and shade the
area behind the word.

Pages 78–79
• Ask students to read pages 78–79 to themselves to find the answer
to the question: “Which travels faster, sound or light?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Light travels much faster.)
• Remind students that light travels at different speeds depending on
what it is traveling through. Ask, “Does sound travel at a different
speed than light? How do you know?” (Yes, because you can see
lightning before you hear thunder.)
• Have students add the following to the Bell Organizer:
• In the row labeled “Speed of Sound vs. Speed of Light”:
Write SOUND, 750 Miles Per Hour on the left and draw a snail
underneath. Write LIGHT, 186,000 Miles Per Second on the right
and draw a rabbit underneath.

Pages 80–81
• Have students read pages 80–81 to themselves to find the answer to
the question: “Does sound travel faster through a solid or a gas?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Sound travels faster through a solid.)
• Ask students to tap their desk with their fingers and listen. Then, have
students put one ear down on their desks and listen to the tapping
again. Ask, “Which is louder, when you have your head up or when
your ear is on the desk?” (when your ear is on the desk)
• If there is time, have students try listening through other mediums,
such as a piece of paper, the classroom door, or a window, and share
their experiences.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 9 99
© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• As students add the following to their Bell Organizer, tell them that
even though the chapter didn’t mention liquids on this page, sound
travels faster through liquids than gases but not as fast as through
solids. (Refer back to the illustration on page 77.)
• Have students add the following to Bell Organizer:
• To answer the question “How does it travel?”: Write FASTEST
and SOLID (DOOR) and draw a door.
• Write FASTER and LIQUID (WATER) and draw a glass of water.
• Write FAST and GASES (AIR) and draw a picture of squiggly lines
to show air.
• Write CANNOT TRAVEL and VACUUM (SPACE) and draw stars.
• Have students complete Worksheet 9.2 independently.

Grammar 25 minutes
Grammar Review
• Tell students to turn to Worksheet 9.3 and complete the page
independently. Allow students 10–15 minutes to complete the
worksheet.
• Once students have completed the worksheet, display a copy of
Worksheet 9.3 so that it is visible to all students. Work through each
Worksheet 9.3
item, reviewing the answers with the entire class.

Morphology 15 minutes
Practice Suffixes –ous and –ly
• Tell students that today, they will practice how to determine whether
words in sentences should have the suffix –ous or have both the
suffixes –ous and –ly.
• Direct students’ attention to the first sentence you wrote on the board
in advance:
Worksheet 9.4 I wear a helmet when I ride my bike because it is     to ride
without a helmet on the road with cars.
• Call on one student to read the sentence aloud.

100 Unit 5  |  Lesson 9


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students what word, either with the suffix –ous or with both
the suffixes –ous and –ly, goes in the blank. Students should say
dangerous.
• Ask students what part of speech the word is that correctly fills in the
blank. (adjective)
• Discuss with students why dangerous fits in the blank and not
dangerously. (The word that will fill in the blank will describe a noun.
Adjectives describe nouns. Dangerous is an adjective. Dangerously is
an adverb, which is a part of speech that describes verbs. That is not
the part of speech that will correctly fit in this blank.)
• Follow the same procedures for the other two sentences you
prepared in advance. (For sentence #2, the word that will fit in the
blank will describe a verb. Adverbs are words that describe verbs.
Furiously is the adverb that fits in this sentence. For sentence #3, the
word that will fit in the blank will describe a noun. Adjectives describe
nouns. Mountainous is the adjective that fits in this sentence.)
• Have students turn to Worksheet 9.4. Ask students to work with a
partner to complete the worksheet. If time permits, you may wish to
review the correct answers as a class.

Spelling 15 minutes
Word Sort
• Tell students they will sort words with /ae/ spelled ‘ay’, ‘ai’, and ‘ea’.
• Direct students’ attention to the example on the board.
• Ask students to identify the vowel patterns. (‘ay’ > /ae/, ‘ai’ > /ae/,
‘ea’ > /ae/)
• Tell students to read the words below the headers with you. (failed,

Whole Group: “Characteristics of Sound”
Introducing the Chapter
• Review with students what they learned about sound in the previous
chapter by referring to the Bell Organizer on Worksheet 9.1.
• Using the graphic organizer, remind students of the following:
• Sound is caused by vibrations.
Chapter 7
• Sound travels through mediums.
• Sound travels fast through gases, faster through liquids, and
fastest through solids. Sound cannot travel through space
because it is a vacuum and sound needs a medium in order to
travel.
• Sound travels slower than light.
Worksheets 9.1, 10.2
• Remind students that in an earlier Listening & Learning lesson in this
unit, they heard Jack and Samuel talking about pitch, intensity, and
frequency.

106 Unit 5  |  Lesson 10


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students to spend a few moments recalling what Jack and
Samuel said about pitch, intensity, and frequency. (Pitch describes
how high or low a sound is. The greater the intensity, or power, of
a sound wave, the louder the sound. Frequency is the rate at which
sound waves are produced and a long wavelength means the sound
has a low frequency.)
• Tell students that the title of today’s chapter is “Characteristics of
Sound.”
• Ask students to turn to the Table of Contents, locate the chapter, and
then turn to the first page of the chapter.
Previewing the Vocabulary

• When students have finished reading, restate the question and ask
one student to answer. (similarities: both are forms of energy that
travel in waves; differences: sound needs a medium, light does not;
light travels faster than sound)

• Ask students to look at the images on page 85.
• Read the caption, “Both of these sounds travel through air. How are
they different?”
• Ask students to read page 84 to themselves to find out how these
sounds are different.
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and call on
a student to answer. (The baby makes a high-pitched “screeching”
sound and an adult yelling makes a low-pitched, deep sound.)
• Have students add the following to the Bell Organizer:
• In the row marked Pitch: On the left side, draw a picture of a baby
crying, write HIGH PITCH near it, and draw a sound wave with
many wavelengths that are close together.
• In the row marked Pitch: On the right side, draw a picture of an
owl hooting, write LOW PITCH near it, and draw a sound wave
with few wavelengths that are far apart.

Pages 86–87
• Ask students to read page 86 to themselves to find the answer to the
question: “What creates changes in pitch? Why is one sound high-
pitched and another low-pitched?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the questions and have
students answer. (Faster vibrations produce shorter sound waves,
which make sounds with a higher pitch. Slower vibrations produce
sounds with longer sound waves, which make sounds with a lower
pitch.)
• Then, ask students, “What kind of vibrations produce the sound
waves of a baby crying?” (faster vibrations)
• Finally, ask students, “What kind of vibrations produce the sound
waves of an adult yelling?” (slower vibrations)

Pages 88–89
• Display the Vocabulary Cards to preview volume and intense and
discuss definitions. Note for students that intensity is also used in this
chapter.
• Draw students’ attention to the images on page 89. Have one student
read the caption to the class.

© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students to read page 88 to themselves to find the answer(s) to
the question: “What are features of loud sounds?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and ask
them to read the answer(s) from the page. (Loud sounds have more
intensity. A loud sound travels far, much farther than a quiet sound.)
• Have students add the following to the Bell Organizer:
• In the row marked Volume: Write LOUD in large capital letters.
• In the row marked Volume: Write soft in much smaller, lowercase
letters.

Pages 90–91
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview damage and discuss its
definition.
• Have students read pages 90–91 to themselves, noting why the word
damage would be a vocabulary word in this chapter.
• Ask students, “What should you do to protect your hearing from loud
sounds? (Answers may vary but could include use ear plugs, turn the
volume down, etc.)
Wrap-Up
• Review with students the information they added to the Bell Organizer
from this chapter.
• Have students complete Worksheet 10.2 independently.

Spelling Analysis Directions
Unit 5, Lesson 10

For additional • Students are likely to make the following errors:


practice, see
worksheets in • For ‘ay’, students may write ‘ai’ or ‘ea’
Section IV-B of the
Assessment and • For ‘ai’, students may write ‘ay’ or ‘ea’
Remediation Guide.
• For ‘ea’, students may write ‘ay’ or ‘ai’
• While the above student-error scenarios may occur, you should be
aware that misspellings may be due to many other factors. You may
find it helpful to record the actual spelling errors that the student
makes in the analysis chart. For example:
• Is the student consistently making errors on specific vowels?
Which ones?
• Is the student consistently making errors at the end of the words?
• Is the student consistently making errors on particular beginning
consonants?
• Did the student write words for each feature correctly?
• Also, examine the dictated sentences for errors in capitalization and
punctuation.

Advance Preparation
If you wish, you may draw the spelling table on a chart or board before
you begin to teach this lesson.
‘a_e’ > /ae/ ‘a’ > /ae/

Note to Teacher
For Lessons 11–15, you will teach the spelling alternatives for /ae/: ‘a_e’
as in cake and ‘a’ as in paper. Students should be familiar with these
spelling alternatives as they were taught in Grade 2.
The following chart is provided for your review:

Spellings for the Sound /ae/


100
(44%) Spelled ‘a’ as in paper
80 (25%) Spelled ‘a_e’ as in cake
(16%) Spelled ‘ai’ as in wait
60
(9%) Spelled ‘ay’ as in day
40 (1%) Spelled ‘ey’ as in hey
(1%) Spelled ‘ea’ as in great
20
(1%) Spelled ‘eigh’ as in weight
0
(3%) All other spellings

Here are some patterns for you to be aware of:


• The ‘a_e’ separated digraph spelling always has a consonant sound
that follows /ae/, and the spelling for that consonant sound is inserted
between the ‘a’ and the ‘e’ (ape, rate, make).
• Many ‘a_e’ words change to words spelled with only ‘a’ when a suffix
is added, e.g., name > naming and bake > baker. The ‘e’ is dropped
when a suffix beginning with a vowel sound is added.

116 Unit 5  |  Lesson 11


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• The ‘a’ spelling is actually more common than the basic code spelling
‘a_e’. However, it was not chosen as the basic code spelling for two
reasons: 1. ‘a’ is the basic code spelling for /a/ as in cat, and
2. ‘a’ > /ae/ is rare in one-syllable words of the sort used in beginning
reading materials (strange, waste). It is primarily found in multi-syllable
words (naming, paper, April).

Reading Time 25 minutes


Whole Group: “The Human Voice”
Introducing the Chapter
• Review with students what they learned in the previous chapter by
referring to the Bell Organizer on Worksheet 9.1.
• Using the graphic organizer, remind students of the following:
• The greater the intensity or power of a sound wave, the louder the
Chapter 8
volume of the sound.
• High-pitched sounds are created when an object or surface
vibrates back and forth quickly, creating shorter and more sound
waves.
• Low-pitched sounds are caused when an object or surface
vibrates back and forth slowly, creating longer and fewer sound
Worksheet 9.1 waves.
• Remind students that in an earlier Listening & Learning lesson in this
unit, they heard Jack and Samuel talking about the human voice and
the parts of your body that are used for speech.
• Ask students to spend a few moments recalling what Jack and
Samuel said about the trachea, larynx, and vocal cords. (If you could
see inside your body, you would discover that inside your throat, at
the top of your windpipe, or trachea, is your voice box. The voice
box is also known as the larynx. Within your larynx are two bands of
muscle called vocal cords. These vocal cords enable humans to make
a wide range of sounds.)
• Ask students to turn to the Table of Contents, locate the chapter, and
then turn to the first page of the chapter.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 11 117

Previewing the Vocabulary
• Following your established procedures, preview the vocabulary as
well as assist students who need help with decoding.

Vocabulary for “The Human Voice”


1. lung—one of a pair of organs that allows animals to breathe by
filling with air (lungs) (94)
2. tra|che|a*—a tube that air passes through going to and from the
lungs; windpipe (94)
3. lar|ynx*—the organ in your throat that holds the vocal cords and
makes it possible to speak; voice box (94)
4. au|to|mat|i|cal|ly—operating on its own without direct control
(98)

Guided Reading Supports and Purpose for Reading

Pages 92–93
• Ask students to look at the image on page 93.
• Read the caption, “Do you recognize the voices of friends and people
in your family?”.
• Ask students, “If you had your eyes shut, would you know who was
talking to you?”
• Give students a moment to think and then ask them to give you a
thumbs up if their answer is yes or a thumbs down if their answer is
no.
• Tell students they will conduct an experiment today. Have students
read page 92 silently. Then, call three students to the front of the
room and have them bring their Readers. Have the rest of the class
close their eyes (no peeking). The three students will take turns
reading a sentence each from page 92. You will read the last two
sentences on the page. After each sentence is read, the class should
call out the student’s name who read and name you last.

118 Unit 5  |  Lesson 11


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Pages 94–95
• Display the image for the chapter and the Vocabulary Cards to
preview lung, trachea, and larynx and discuss definitions. Note for
students that lungs is used in this chapter.
• Ask students to look at the image on page 95 and read the caption
together.
• Say to students, “I wonder how these parts of my body work to make
sound. Let’s read page 94 to find out more.”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and have
students answer. (Answers may vary.)
• Ask, “What is another name for the trachea?” (windpipe)
• Ask, “What is another name for the larynx?” (voice box)
• Restate the first question about how these body parts work to make
sound and have students think about the other names for trachea and
larynx.
• Let students pair up and share ideas with each other.
• Then, have students share with the class.

Pages 96–97
• Have students read pages 96–97 to themselves to find the answer to
the question: “Which part vibrates in order to make sound: the lungs,
the vocal cords, or the trachea?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and ask a
student to read the sentence that answers the question. (The vocal
cords vibrate and make waves in the air that continue up your throat
and out of your mouth.)

Pages 98–99
• Display the Vocabulary Card to preview automatically and discuss its
meaning.
• Draw students’ attention to the images on page 99 and ask them to
predict how they learned to speak.
• Have several students share their predictions.
• If you have students who speak languages other than English, have
them share some words in their native language with the class.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 11 119


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students to read page 98 to themselves to find out how people
learn to speak.
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and ask a
student to answer. (Babies practice what they hear and learn to speak
whatever language they are hearing.)
• Have students add to the Bell Organizer:
• I n the row marked Human Voices: Have students draw the vocal
cords, the larynx, the trachea, and the lungs.

Pages 100–101
• Draw students’ attention to the image on page 101, read the caption,
and have students share how they think a little child’s voice and an
adult’s voice might be different. (Answers may vary.)
• Ask students to read page 100 to themselves to find the answer
to the question: “Why do children have higher-pitched voices than
adults?”
• When students have finished reading, restate the question and ask a
student to answer. (Children have shorter vocal cords that make their
voices higher-pitched.)
• Ask, “What makes voices louder?” (The more air you push out of your
mouth, the louder your voice.)

9. invade 20. Challenge Word: finally
10. inhale Content Word: concave
11. changes

Unit 5  |  Lesson 11 121


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Point to the Challenge Words on the board. Explain to students that
the Challenge Words, another and finally, are also part of their spelling
list and are words used very often. Neither Challenge Word follows
the spelling patterns for this week. Use the Challenge Words in
sentences as examples for students: “May I have another piece of pie,
please?” “I am so happy that it is finally Saturday!”
• Remind students that this week, they once again have a Content
Word. Review with them that the Content Word is a little harder than
the other words. (If students try to spell the Content Word on the
assessment and don’t get it right, they will not be penalized. Simply
correct it as you do the other words and applaud their effort. There
should not be a penalty for not trying or misspelling the Content
Word. The important thing is that they tried something that was a
stretch for them academically.)
• Tell students that the Content Word, concave, does follow the spelling
patterns for this week as the ‘a_e’ is pronounced /ae/. Concave is
a content-related word defined as curved inward, like a spoon and
describes a mirror or a lens.
• Now, draw the following table on the board:
‘a_e’ > /ae/ ‘a’ > /ae/

• Ask students to refer to the /ae/ spellings on page 3 of the Individual


Code Chart. Point out that there are many spellings for /ae/ and ask
students to name the different letters used to represent this sound. Ask
students to tell you which words to list under the ‘a_e’ > /ae/ header.
Briefly explain the meaning of each word.

122 Unit 5  |  Lesson 11


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Ask students to identify any spelling words that include the
‘a’ > /ae/ sound. Write the words under the correct header. Briefly
explain the meaning of each word.
‘a_e’ > /ae/ ‘a’ > /ae/
translate major
pancake nation
cascade famous
escape danger
invade changes
inhale basic
refrigerate elevator
earthquake spacious
hurricane fragrant
concave

• Ask students to look at page 3 of the Individual Code Chart for all
of the different spellings for /ae/. Of the seven spellings, which is used
most frequently? (‘a’) Remind students to look at the power bar under
the spellings and the order in which they are sequenced to determine
frequency.
• Ask students to locate the two spellings for /ae/ in this week’s spelling
words and determine whether they are frequently used spellings or not.
(‘a_e’ is second to ‘a’ to spell the /ae/ sound.)
• Tell students if ever they are trying to spell a multi-syllable word with
the /ae/ sound in the middle and really don’t know which spelling is
used, their best bet is to try the spelling ‘a’ since it is the most frequent.
However, if they are trying to spell a one-syllable word, their best try is
the ‘a_e’ spelling.
• Practice the words as follows during the remaining time. Call on a
student to read any word on the chart. Then have the student orally use
the word in a meaningful sentence. After the student says the sentence,
have him/her ask the class: “Does that sentence make sense?” If the
class says, “Yes,” then the student puts a check mark in front of the
word and calls on another student to come to the front and take a turn.
If the class says, “No,” have the student try again or call on another
student to come to the front and use the word in a meaningful sentence.
This continues until all the words are used or time has run out.
• Tell students that this table will remain on display until the assessment
so that they may refer to it during the week.

• Read the first two sentences you prepared in advance to students:

My grandmother loves ice cream.


My grandfather loves pie.

• Look at the first simple sentence and ask, “Who or what is the sentence about?” (my
grandmother)
• Write the letter S above grandmother to show that this is the subject.
• Ask, “What does my grandmother do?” (loves ice cream)
• Write the letter P above those words to show that this is the predicate. Draw a line between
the subject and the predicate.

of where to place the and, tell them that they should keep all of subjects and predicates in
exactly the same order they are and just connect the two sentences.
• Write the new sentence on the board using appropriate capitalization and punctuation.

My grandmother loves ice cream, and my grandfather loves pie.

• Ask, “How many subjects are there in this sentence now?” (two) Label both subjects with the
letter S. (grandmother and grandfather)
• Ask, “How many predicates are there in this sentence now?” (two) Label both predicates with
the letter P. (loves ice cream and loves pie)
• Ask, “What word did you add to make this new sentence?” (and)
• Point out that the word and is the part of speech called a conjunction. Label the conjunction
by drawing two lines underneath it.
• Ask, “What does the conjunction and connect or join?” (the original two sentences, which are
now called independent clauses since they are combined into one compound sentence)

S P S P
My grandmother loves ice cream, and my grandfather loves pie.

• Note to Teacher: A sentence that combines two independent clauses with the conjunction
and is called a compound sentence. In unit 2, students learned to recognize compound
sentences with the conjunction and; they learned to distinguish this type of compound
sentence from other simple sentences in which and might be used as a conjunction, but in
which there were not two independent clauses.
• Remind students that the sentence that they just created is called a compound sentence
because it has two independent clauses, each with its own subject and predicate, joined by
the conjunction and.
• Read the next two sentences to students:

Sandy eats hotdogs.


Tyler eats hamburgers.

predicate. (eats hotdogs, eats hamburgers) Label each predicate with the letter P.

S P
Sandy | eats hotdogs.

S P
Tyler | eats hamburgers.

• Ask students to orally build a more interesting sentence by joining two clauses together,
making a compound sentence; write the response on the board. Label the conjunction by
underlining it twice.

Sandy eats hotdogs and Tyler eats hamburgers.

• Ask, “What word did you add to make a compound sentence?” (and)
• Ask, “What does the conjunction and connect or join?” (two independent clauses, Sandy eats
hotdogs and Tyler eats hamburgers)
• Read the next two sentences to students.

• Point out that there are two complete sentences, each with its own subject and predicate.
• Ask the students if anyone can think of a way to connect the two sentences using the
conjunction and; call on one student to say the new sentence aloud. If students seem unsure
of where to place the and, tell them that they should keep all of subjects and predicates in
exactly the same order they are and just connect the two sentences.
• Write the new sentence on the board using appropriate capitalization and punctuation. Draw
two lines under the word and to show that it is a conjunction.

S P S P
Jack | finally learned to tie his shoes, and his parents | were thrilled.

• Point out that the two simple sentences are joined with the conjunction and, making a
compound sentence.
• Point out that the actual words in the two simple sentences didn’t change, but were merely
joined together as independent clauses to make a longer, more interesting sentence.
• Challenge: Ask students to identify the subject(s), predicate(s) and conjunction and in each of
the Challenge Sentences and to then indicate whether the Challenge Sentence is or is not a
compound sentence.

S S P
Jose and Sam | went to the baseball game yesterday.

S P P
The mother bird | dug up worms and then fed them to its babies.

• (Neither Challenge Sentence is a compound sentence because it does not have two
independent clauses, each with its own subject and predicate, that can stand alone.)
• Turn to Worksheet 12.2 and have students complete it as a teacher-guided activity, following
the above guidelines to help students add parts (subjects and predicates) to sentences and
join simple sentences to make compound sentences.

Note to Teacher
Students will complete an assessment by reading three selections
during one sitting and answering comprehension, grammar, morphology,
and dictionary skills questions that follow each selection. Students will
not read out of their Reader but rather from Worksheet 13.1, where the
selections have been printed.

Assessment 50 minutes
ww Student Skills Assessment
• Have students tear out Worksheet 13.1.
• Tell students they will read three selections printed on Worksheet 13.1
and answer comprehension, morphology, grammar, and dictionary
skills questions that follow each selection.
• Tell students that should they feel tired, it’s a good idea to take a short,
Worksheet 13.1 personal break. Explain to students that they need to respect the
others in the classroom and stay seated, while quietly looking up to the
ceiling, stretching their shoulders, and taking a deep breath or two.
• Tell students they should go right on to the second selection once
they have finished the first and right on to the third selection once
they have finished the second.
• Encourage students to do their best.
• Once students finish all three selections, encourage them to review
their papers, rereading and looking over their answers carefully.
• Again, explain the necessity of respecting that not all classmates
will finish at the same time, and, if they finish and have checked their
papers, they should remain quiet and allow others to finish.

Optional Assessment of Fluency
You may wish to assess students’ fluency in reading using any of the
supplemental chapters that they have not yet read. Recording and
Scoring Sheets have been specifically included for “Pupils.”

ww “Pupils”
• Turn to the text copy of “Pupils” at the end of this lesson. This is the
text copy students will read aloud.
• Ask the student to remove Worksheet 13.2 from his/her Workbook.
You will use this worksheet to mark as a running record as you listen
to the student read orally.
Worksheet 13.2 • Tell the student that you are going to ask him or her to read the
selection aloud. Explain that you are going to keep a record of the
amount of time it takes him or her to read the selection. Please also
explain to the student that he/she should not rush but rather read to
his/her own regular pace.
• Begin timing when the student reads the first word of the selection.
If you are using a watch, write the exact Start Time, in minutes and
seconds, on your record page. If you are using a stopwatch, you
do not need to write down the start time since the stopwatch will
calculate Elapsed Time. As the student reads the selection, make
a running record on the copy with the student’s name using the
following guidelines:

Words read correctly No mark is required.

Omissions Draw a long dash above the word omitted.

Insertions Write a caret (^) at the point where the


insertion was made. If you have time, write
down the word that was inserted.

Words read incorrectly Write an “X” above the word.

Substitutions Write the substitution above the word.

Self-corrected errors Replace original error mark with an “SC.”

Teacher-supplied words Write a “T” above the word (counts as an


error).

138 Unit 5  |  Lesson 13


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• When the student finishes reading the selection, write the exact Finish
Time in minutes and seconds on your record sheet. Alternatively, if
you are using a stopwatch, simply write down the Elapsed Time in
minutes and seconds. In the interest of time, ask students to read only
the first three pages of text in either chapter. (Five minutes should be
enough time to get a measurement on most students.) If the student
does not read to the end, draw a vertical line on the record sheet to
indicate how far he or she read. Also write down either the Finish Time
or the Elapsed Time. After the student finishes reading orally, you may
direct him to finish reading the remainder of the selection silently;
you may also assess comprehension by having students answer the
following comprehension questions orally.

Oral Comprehension Questions on “Pupils”


1. Literal  What did Mr. Brown ask his students to do? (to look into
their partner’s eyes)
2. Literal  How did the students’ eyes respond when the room
became dark? (Their pupils opened wider.)
3. Literal  How did the students’ eyes respond when the light was
turned on? (Their pupils shrunk.)
4. Literal  What is the job of the pupil in an eye? (The pupil is the
gatekeeper that allows more or less light to enter the eye.)
5. Literal  What about the job of the pupil in an eye makes it a reflex?
(The widening and shrinking of the pupil is done involuntarily.)
6. Literal  Did all of the students’ pupils behave in the same manner?
(yes)

• Repeat this process for additional students. Scoring can be done


later, provided you have kept running records and jotted down either
the Elapsed Time or the Start Time and the Finish Time.

Unit 5  |  Lesson 13 139


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
Guidelines for Calculating W.C.P.M. Scores
If the reading was fairly accurate (< 10 uncorrected errors), you can get a
rough (and easy) estimate of a student’s W.C.P.M. score simply by noting
the time and looking at the chart on Worksheet 13.2.
To calculate a student’s exact W.C.P.M. score, use the information you
wrote down on the record sheet and follow the steps described below.
The steps are also shown in graphic form on Worksheet 13.2. You will
probably find it helpful to have a calculator available.
1. First, complete the Words section of Worksheet 13.2.
2. Count Words Read. This is the total number of words that the
student read or attempted to read, up to the point where he or
she stopped. It includes words that the student read correctly
as well as words that the student read incorrectly or skipped
over. If the student attempted to read the whole selection,
use 400 words total. If the student did not finish the selection,
you will need to count the number of words that the student
actually attempted to read. Write the count for Words Read in
the matching box on Worksheet 13.2.
3. Count the Uncorrected Mistakes noted in your running record.
This includes words read incorrectly, omissions, substitutions,
and words that you had to supply. Write the total in the box
labeled Uncorrected Mistakes on Worksheet 13.2. (A mistake
that is corrected by the student is not counted as a mistake;
the student is penalized for the time he or she lost making the
correction, but not for the initial mistake.)
4. Subtract Uncorrected Mistakes from Words Read to get Words
Correct.
5. Next, complete the Time section of the worksheet.

140 Unit 5  |  Lesson 13


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
6. Calculate Elapsed Time in minutes and seconds. (If you used
a stopwatch, this should already be done for you. Skip to the
next step.) If you used a watch and recorded start and stop
times, you will need to subtract the Start Time from the Finish
Time to calculate the Elapsed Time. Subtract seconds from
seconds and then minutes from minutes. Calculate Time in
Seconds. Multiply the number of minutes by 60 to convert
minutes to seconds, and then add the number of seconds.
7. Next, complete the W.C.P.M. section of the worksheet.
8. Divide Words Correct by Time in Seconds. Then multiply by 60
to get Words Correct Per Minute (W.C.P.M.).
As you evaluate W.C.P.M. scores, here are some factors to consider.
It is normal for students to show a wide range in fluency and in
W.C.P.M. scores. However, a major goal for Grade 3 students
is to read with sufficient fluency to ensure comprehension and
independent reading of school assignments in subsequent grades.
Exact fluency targets vary from state to state; the national mean
calculated by Hasbrouck and Tindal in 2006 for Winter of Grade 3 is
92 W.C.P.M.
A student’s W.C.P.M. score can be compared with the score of other
students in the classroom (or grade level) and also with the national
fluency norms for Winter of Grade 3 obtained by Hasbrouck and
Tindal. Students whose scores are below the 25th percentile (62
W.C.P.M) are experiencing serious problems in reading fluently.

Pupils
“Class,” said Mr. Brown, “today we are going to learn some more about how
our eyes work. James, would you please turn out the lights?”
James walked to the door and switched off the lights. Mr. Brown closed the
blinds. It got darker in the classroom. It was not completely black. Some light
came through the blinds, but not very much. The children giggled in the dimly-
lit room.
“Now,” said Mr. Brown. “I’d like all twenty-two of you to turn and look at
the person who sits next to you. Sally, you look at Mick. Jen, you look at Stan.
That’s it! Lean close and look your partner right in the eyes. Can you see your
partner’s pupils? Remember: the pupil is the black part in the center of the eye.
It’s the part that lets in light from the outside world.”
Mr. Brown walked over to the door. “Can you all see your partner’s pupils?”
“Yes!” said the students.
“Keep looking at your partner’s pupils!” said Mr. Brown. Then, he turned on
the lights. In an instant, the room went from dim to bright.
Sally was staring at Mick’s pupils. She watched them shrink.
“Cool!” she called out. “Mick’s pupils got smaller when you turned on the
lights!”
“Sally’s did, too!” said Mick.
All around the room, students noticed the same thing. When the lights came
on, their partner’s pupils got smaller.
Mr. Brown explained: “The pupil’s job is to let light into the eye and to keep
it out. If it’s dark, your pupil opens wide to let in a lot of light. If it’s bright, your
pupil shrinks to let in less light. This is a reflex. You don’t have to think, I believe
I shall open my pupil a bit wider. Your pupils work all by themselves, without you
even thinking about it. The pupil is like the gatekeeper of the eye. It decides what

142 Unit 5  |  Lesson 13


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
gets in and what has to stay out.”
“Do it again!” shouted Mick. “Shut off the lights!”
“Okay,” said Mr. Brown. “Keep your eyes on your partner’s pupils.”
He threw the switch. Forty-four pupils grew larger in the dimness.
Mr. Brown waited a few seconds. Then, he turned the lights back on. Forty-
four pupils shrank in the bright light.
“So,” said Mr. Brown. “Do we understand what the pupils do?”
The students nodded their heads in agreement.

make a longer, more interesting sentence.
• Ask two students what kind of ice cream they like. (One might say
chocolate and one might say strawberry.)

Unit 5  |  Lesson 14 145


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Write a sentence using the information, such as: John likes chocolate
ice cream but Jim likes strawberry.
• Cover all of the words that follow Jim, reading just the first part of
the sentence aloud. Point out to students that without even reading
the remainder of the sentence, as soon as they read the word but,
they can already figure out that Jim does not like the same flavor as
John. Uncover the remainder of the sentence to confirm that this is
the case. Re-emphasize that the conjunction but acts as a signal,
like a yellow traffic light, telling students to pay attention because
something different is coming.
• Ask two other students what color they like the best. (One might say
red and another might say blue.)
• Make a sentence using this information, such as: Alice likes red but
Jane likes blue.
• Again, point out that the word but shows that the two ideas are
different.
• Read the following sentence that you placed on the board:

Sarah plays soccer very well. Paul enjoys golf.

• Show students how to join the two sentences together by removing


the period after the word well and simply inserting the word but.
• Draw two lines under but to show that it is a conjunction.

Sarah plays soccer very well but Paul enjoys golf.

• Have students look at the words before the word but and determine
the subject and predicate, drawing a line between the subject and
predicate, and adding an ‘S’ over the subject and a ‘P’ over the
predicate.

S P
Sarah | plays soccer very well.

146 Unit 5  |  Lesson 14


© 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation
• Have students look at the second part of the sentence after the
word but. Have them determine the subject and predicate, draw a
line between them and add an ‘S’ over the subject and a ‘P’ over the
predicate.

S P S P
Sarah | plays soccer very well but Paul | enjoys golf.

• Point out to students that because these two parts of the sentence
are simple sentences (because they each have subjects and
predicates) and are joined by the conjunction but, the sentence is a
compound sentence.
• Point out that you didn’t change any of the words in the two simple
sentences, but merely inserted the conjunction but to make a longer,
more interesting sentence and to show that the second simple
sentence is different from the first.
• Read the following sentences to students that you placed on the
board:

Second grade was fun. I like third grade better.

• Ask students to guide you through removing the period after fun and
inserting the conjunction but.

Section IV-B of the
Assessment and • For ‘a’, students may write ‘a_e’
Remediation Guide.
• While either of the above student-error scenarios may occur, you
should still be aware that misspellings may be due to many other
factors. You may find it helpful to record the actual spelling errors that
the student makes in the analysis chart. For example:
• Is the student consistently making errors on specific vowels?
Which ones?
• Is the student consistently making errors on double consonants?
• Is the student consistently making errors at the end of the words?
• Is the student consistently making errors on particular beginning
consonants?
• Did the student write word for each feature correctly?
• Also examine the dictated sentences for errors in capitalization, and
punctuation.

Simply find the number of correct answers the student produced along
the top of the chart and the number of total questions on the worksheet
or activity along the left side. Then find the cell where the column and the
row converge. This indicates the Tens score. By using the Tens Conversion
Chart, you can easily convert any raw score, from 0 to 20, into a Tens
score.
Please note that the Tens Conversion Chart was created to be used
with assessments that have a defined number of items (such as written
assessments). However, teachers are encouraged to use the Tens system
to record informal observations as well. Observational Tens scores are
based on your observations during class. It is suggested that you use the
following basic rubric for recording observational Tens scores.
9–10 Student appears to have excellent understanding
7–8 Student appears to have good understanding
5–6 Student appears to have basic understanding
