Module 1 Learning Goals Use new vocabulary that is introduced and taught directly; analyze the author's purpose and/or perspective in a variety of text and

understand how they affect meaning; analyze, interpret, and evaluate an author's use of descriptive language (e.g.,

tone, irony, mood, imagery, pun, alliteration, onomatopoeia, allusion), figurative language (e.g., symbolism, metaphor, personification, hyperbole), common idioms, and mythological and literary allusions, and explain how they impact meaning in a variety of texts.

listen to, read, and discuss familiar and conceptually challenging text; categorize key vocabulary and identify salient features; relate new vocabulary to familiar words; identify and understand the meaning of conceptually advanced prefixes, suffixes, and

root words; determine the main idea or essential message in grade-level or higher texts through

inferring, paraphrasing, summarizing, and identifying relevant details; identify cause-and-effect relationships in text; explain how meaning is enhanced through various features of poetry, including sound

(e.g., rhythm, repetition, alliteration, consonance, assonance), structure (e.g., meter, rhyme scheme), and graphic elements (e.g., line length, punctuation, word position);
