Question of the Day
How have people explained the pattern

Today we will learn about:
Generalize Imagery/Sensory Words Context Clues Grammar: Subject-Verb Agreement Spelling: Vowel Sound in shout Textbook/Trade Book Day and Night
Generalize
A generalization is a broad statement or rule that applies to many examples.
A clue word such as all, most, always, usually, or generally signals that an author is making a generalization.
Some generalizations are valid, which means that they are supported by facts or details. Some are faulty, which means that they are not supported.
Imagery/Sensory Words
Imagery, or sensory language, is the use of words that describe how things look, sound, smell, taste, or feel. Writers use imagery to help give readers a strong mental picture.
Imagery helps readers understand the setting, mood, characters, and action in a story.
When reading, note the words that help you see, smell, hear, taste, or feel what is happening.
Context Clues
You can use context clues to determine the meaning of an unfamiliar word.
List words whose meanings you were not sure of as you read How Night Came from the Sea.
Fill in the chart with each word, context clues, and the definition of the word based on context.

Textbook/Trade Book
These books are usually organized into units or chapters.
The text may be organized under headings and subheadings.
Often, they include graphics such as charts, graphs, time lines, photographs, and maps that present information visually.
