5 3 Learn Through the Text SOCIAL STUDIES: Neighborhoods and Communities Use Haz una casa to reinforce children s understanding of what a neighborhood is. Explain that a neighborhood is made up of homes and other buildings in a small area of a town or city. Ask children to name things in their neighborhood. Encourage them to describe different buildings. Have children use their paper bag houses to create a neighborhood on a rug or mat. As a group, talk about the neighborhood using words such as tienda, casa, edificio de apartamentos, and escuela. COMPREHENSION: Identify Steps in a Procedure Have children take turns identifying each numbered step in the book. Reinforce the language of the process by prompting with questions such as Qué haces primero? Qué número va primero? Using the pictures and words from the completed graphic organizer, cut apart the steps and mix up the order. Ask children to work together to put the pictures and words in the correct order. For additional practice with this skill, use the same technique, and have children identify the steps in a classroom routine such as a fire drill. WRITING Write a Procedure Have children use what they have learned about procedural text to write a book highlighting a daily classroom procedure. New students or visitors can read the procedure to find out how to join in. Begin by having children recall the procedures they follow for a classroom routine such as morning circle time. On chart paper, list each item as children offer it, even if it is not in the correct order. Review the list, and have children put the list in the correct order. Begin with the first step and number it. Pass the marker to the child who identifies the second item and have him or her write the number 2 next to it. Continue the same procedure for the list. Review the order of the list before writing each numbered item on individual sheets of paper. Have children work with partners to illustrate the items on the pages. As a class, assemble the book. Remind children that the steps must be in order. Create a cover for the book and bind it. Make the book available to new students or visitors who come to the classroom.
