Read the title and author and talk about the photograph of an early television on the cover. Tell students that this is a biography, so it will contain facts about a real person. Introduce the Text Guide students through the text, noting important ideas and helping with unfamiliar language and vocabulary so they can read the text successfully. Here are some suggestions: Page 3: Explain that this book is about a man named Philo Farnsworth who invented the television. He got the idea for a television picture tube when he was a 14 year old farm boy! Suggested language: Vayan a la página 3 de este libro. Miren el título de la sección: Una niñez muy dura. Philo nació en 1906, en el oeste en la nueva frontera estadounidense. Por qué vivir en la frontera podría haber sido duro para un niño? Page 5: Draw students attention to the fi rst sentence: Leer sobre la ciencia cambió la vida de Philo. Explain that Philo became much better at school after he became interested in inventions. Cómo creen que su curiosidad en las ciencias ayudó a Philo en la escuela? Page 8: Point to the drawing on this page. Philo dibujó este diseño para su maestro cuando tenía 16 años. Muestra su idea para una máquina que pudiera transformar la electricidad en imágenes. Su idea era controlar la velocidad y dirección de los electrones. Ellos son las partículas, o pequeñísimos pedazos, que generan electricidad. Page 10: Point out the section heading on this page. Philo hizo experimentos en su laboratorio y, el 7 de septiembre de 1927, transmitió la primera imagen de televisión electrónica de la historia. Cómo creen que Philo se sintió cuando vió una imagen televisiva en el aire por primera vez? Ahora, vuelvan al comienzo de la historia para descubrir qué sucedió con Philo Farnsworth y su famoso invento.

Suggested language: Cómo creen que se sintió Philo cuando pudo transmitir por primera vez una imagen electrónicamente? Cómo se sentirían ustedes si intentaran hacer algo por un largo tiempo y finalmente lo lograran? Ways of Thinking As you discuss the text, help students understand these points: Thinking Within the Text Thinking Beyond the Text Thinking About the Text Philo Farnsworth became interested in electronic inventions when he was a teenager Philo could not finish college because he had to help support his family when his father died, so he set up a lab on his own. Even though Philo thought of the idea for electronic television first, other people created working models of televisions before he did. Sometimes you have to try something many times before succeeding. Inventions can change people s lives Fountas, I.C. & Pinnell, G.S. Teaching for Comprehending and Fluency, Heinemann, Portsmouth, N.H. The author uses an introduction to get readers interested in the book. The illustrations, photographs, and timeline support and extend the text. The events are described in chronological order. The author s purpose is to inform readers about this creative inventor. Choices for Further Support Fluency Invite students to choose a passage from the text to read aloud. Remind them to pay attention to punctuation, and to pause at commas in longer sentences. Comprehension Based on your observations of the students reading and discussion, revisit parts of the text to clarify or extend comprehension. Remind students to go back to the text to support their ideas. Phonics/Word Work Provide practice as needed with words and word parts, using examples from the text. Have students change words to make a range of plurals, including: niñez, imagen, útil, pregunta, lección, invento, inventor. 3

4 Writing about Reading Critical Reading Have students complete the questions on Hoja reproducible Responding Have students complete the activities at the back of the book. Use the instruction below as needed to reinforce or extend understanding of the comprehension skill.

Cuáles son los detalles que apoyan esta idea? Philo no podía creer poder hablar con alguien a través de un teléfono. Hacia preguntas a su padre todo el tiempo acerca de cómo se inventó el teléfono. Practice the Skill Have students write one sentence explaining the main idea of the book. Then have students write one sentence telling a detail that supports this idea. Writing Prompt: Thinking Beyond the Text Have students write a response to the prompt on page 6. Remind them that when they think beyond the text, they use what they know and their own experience to think about what happens in the book.
