Description

All 8 lessons are complete — spot a word picture that is not true, use clues to guess what a text does not say, find a text's main idea and its small parts, notice a symbol in a text, find whose view a text shows, share a thought about a text, notice a real detail in a text, and name a thinking skill that helped us.

Every lesson comes with a full teaching set: a lesson plan, a worksheet, homework, and a handout. The unit also includes 8 exit cards, 2 quizzes, a project, and an assignment.
