5 3 Learn Through the Text SOCIAL STUDIES: Crafts and Foods Reflect Culture Use Artesanías y juegos alrededor del mundo to reinforce your teaching about world cultures and communities. Discuss the various crafts, recipes, and games described in the book. Allow students to tell which ones they have tried or would like to try and why. Explain that crafts and foods often tell something about the culture they are from, or they have an interesting history related to that culture. Have students refer to the introductions and sidebars in Artesanías y juegos alrededor del mundo to recall some of these connections. Divide the class into small groups, and give students time to discuss a craft, game, or food they enjoy and what it tells about the culture they live in. If time allows, you might have an international craft and food day, when students share other crafts and foods they know about from different cultures. COMPREHENSION: Identify Steps in a Process/Procedure Tell students that when reading procedural texts, it is important to follow the steps in order. Sometimes, as in Artesanías y juegos alrededor del mundo, the author numbers the steps so that they are easy to follow. Other times, authors use signal words such as antes, primero, después, luego, and por último to guide the reader through the steps in a process. Many procedural texts will include illustrations of the materials, the steps, or the final product. The reader should pay close attention to illustrations while trying a procedure to make sure he or she is following the steps correctly. Have groups of students practice identifying steps in a procedure by following one of the procedures in the book. As they work, have students ask themselves questions such as Está claramente relacionado con el paso anterior? Estoy listo para avanzar al siguiente paso? WRITING Write a Procedure Have students use what they have learned about procedural text to write an explanation about how to do an activity or play a game. Have students brainstorm a list of simple activities or games that they enjoy and that can be explained in fewer than ten steps. Then ask them to focus on one activity. Have students think about the activity and even act it out to come up with a clear list of steps. Encourage students to use a graphic organizer such as the sequence chart on the back cover to organize the steps. Encourage students to include background information about the activity in their introductions. Then have them write the appropriate materials lists and procedures, numbering the steps. After students have written a first draft, encourage them to revise their writing, checking to make sure that all steps have been included and each is complete. Remind students to add illustrations or sidebars to help explain their procedure and make it more interesting. Collect and bind student procedures into a classroom how-to book.
