him.

5. Reading “The Disappearing Man”- hardcover pg

150› It is a mystery

What is a mystery? Have you ever read a mystery? Have you ever seen a television or movie

history? What happens in a mystery?

As You Read Things to keep in mind as you read

› The main character› What does he witness?› Who is the criminal, and what has he

done?› How does Larry know about the criminal?

Workbook Page 173

Sample Response: The police knew that a thief named Stockton had run into an alley. There was no way out of the alley. Stockton was a jewelry thief.

Sample Response: The police could have gone through every room in the building and questioned and searched every person they found. Sample Response: Larry knew that the thief needed a key to get into the building, so he guessed that the thief worked in the building. He hypothesized that the thief grabbed a police costume from the costume shop in order to blend in with all of the police officers on the scene. Larry predicted that the thief’s costume would not fit very well. Sure enough, the thief’s costume was too small.

Workbook Page 174

Sample Response: Larry is curious and enjoys being where the action is. He is also very confident, outgoing, and smart.
