5 3 Learn Through the Text SCIENCE: Animal Groups Use Animales parecidos to reinforce students understanding of how to classify animals. Remind students that they read about how animals are alike and different. Tell students that the animals in this book belong to these groups: Insectos, reptiles, anfibios, and mamíferos. Have students use the glossary in Animales parecidos to review the definition of each animal group. Write the name of each group on the chalkboard to create an animal chart. Ask students to identify examples of each type of animal. Add the information to the chart. Then have students work in pairs to compare and contrast the different animal groups. COMPREHENSION: Understand Context Clues Tell students that context clues can help them figure out words they don t know. Explain that context clues are words or phrases near an unfamiliar word that help readers figure out what the word means. Have a volunteer read aloud page 10. Point out that the meaning for the word hocico is not stated exactly. Guide students in locating clues on the page that help readers understand the meaning of hocico (pictures with labels, descriptive text, and so on). Turn to page 19. Ask students to point out clues that help them figure out what the word desplazan means. WRITING Write an Informational Text Have students use what they learned about informational text to compare and contrast another animal look-alike pair. During the prewriting stages, you may want to use a graphic organizer similar to the one on the back cover. Have students choose a topic to write about. They can use one of the animal pairs shown on the chart on page 21, or choose two other animals that look alike. Help students research information about their animals at the library or on the Internet. Remind them to think about how the animals in the pair are the same and how they are different. Model how to organize and draft their information into a report. Escribe el título en la parte superior de la página. Escribe una oración que diga cuáles animales estás comparando. Escribe dos o tres oraciones acerca de cada animal. Di en qué se parecen y en qué se diferencian. Haz un dibujo. Ponle rótulos y escribe un pie de dibujo. After students have drafted their writing, encourage them to revise it, looking for ways to add compare and contrast words such as sin embargo, ambos, mientras que, igual, and diferente. Have students read their informational texts to the class. If possible, invite a veterinarian or zookeeper to the class to give students further information about the animals.
