P-5. Provide a sample lesson plan.

A. Summary of the Lesson Plan This lesson teaches students how to decode long words using a variety of reading strategies. B. Student Population Grade level 3rd Skill level On level Grouping - whole group direct instruction, partners-guided instruction C. Materials White board, markers, erasers Teaching transparency 21 Lined paper, pencils D. Objectives Common Core State Standard RF.3.3Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words. Learning Targets Knowledge Targets 1. Students must recognize and identify root/base words. 2. Students must recognize and identify common syllable patterns in words. Reasoning Targets 1. Students must apply knowledge of affixes and root/base words to aid in pronunciation. 2. Students must apply knowledge of syllable patterns to decode syllables in words. E. Procedure 1. Ask students what methods they use to sound out a word they do not know. As the students give responses, teacher will write the methods on the board. Students should mention the following: look for smaller words in the word, use letter sounds, and use syllable patterns. The teacher will add these methods to the board and briefly explain if the students do not. 2. Explain to the students that all of these methods are considered reading strategies and that these strategies will help them figure out how to read long words. 3. Display Transparency 21 and read the introduction and text in the box out loud to the students. 4. Model the title of the passage Snowstorm Alert to show the students how to break down the word Snowstorm. 5. Ask the students to read the remaining passage silently and to think about the underlined words. 6. Ask for a volunteer to decode the first underlined word. If the student struggles, ask the class for assistance. If the class still struggles, reteach by modeling using transparency 21. 7. Go through each underlined word on the transparency as a class. 8. Students will pair up and read the first two chapters of Nate the Great: San Francisco Detective. Tell the students to write down the words they do not know as they read and to draw a star next to each word they are able figure out. Students are encouraged to help one another when decoding a new word. Students will also write out how they figured out the word for a minimum of 5 words.

Leave transparency available on the board for the students to use as a guide as they read. 10. When the story is finished, ask the pairs of students to find another pair to make a group of 4. The students will help one another figure out non-starred words for 5 minutes. 11. Review how to read any additional words the students are unable to figure out with their group. F. Assessment On lined paper, students will write down 5 long words and explain what strategy they used to decode it. There is no assessment rubric for this assignment. During partnered reading, teacher will walk around to ensure students are on task and understand the content. The written long words and explanation by each student will measure how well the student understands how to decode a word.
