Real World Reading Comprehension Unit 1 Planner Genre A Nonfiction Article tells facts about a person, place, or event. Summarize Main Idea and Details The main idea of an article is what it is mostly about. Details give more information about the main idea. A male and female elk in their new home, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park How did the return of elk to one national park and gray wolves to another affect the ecosystems of those parks? National parks protect wildlife, history, and culture. Still, hundreds of plants and animals have disappeared from our national parks. That’s because their environment has changed, mostly because of human activities. Today park rangers work to restore the balance of each park ecosystem. They are bringing plants and animals back into their natural environments. So far, the programs are working—especially for elk and wolves. 74 pages 70A–81V pages 82A–107V pages 108A–143V WEEK 3 WEEK 4 WEEK 5 WEEK 6 Theme Theme Theme Our National Parks Astronauts Wildlife Watchers Test Strategy Think and Search Build Background Build Background Build Background Writing Personal Narrative Vocabulary Vocabulary Vocabulary roamed, completed, endless, universe, protested, raft, scattered, disgusted, journey, natural, wildlife realistic, sensible, astronaut, nuzzle, downstream, paralyzed cluttered Unit 1 Assessment, Word Parts: Compound Dictionary: Using a Context Clues: Paragraph words Dictionary Clues 7–24 Phonics Phonics Phonics Comprehension Long e Long i Long o Problem and Solution; Main Idea and Details; Analyze Character; Comprehension Comprehension Comprehension Character, Setting, Plot Strategy: Summarize Strategy: Make Inferences Strategy: Make Inferences and Analyze and Analyze Vocabulary Strategies Skill: Main Idea and Skill: Analyze Character Skill: Character, Setting, Dictionary: Unfamiliar Details Plot Words, Using a Dictionary; Context Clues: Surrounding Words, Repeated Reading: Repeated Reading: Repeated Reading: Paragraph Clues; Pronunciation Intonation/Pausing Tempo/Pacing Word Parts: Compound Words APPROACHING APPROACHING APPROACHING The Animals of Isle Royal Elevator to Trouble The Secret Code Text Features/Literary ON LEVEL ON LEVEL ON LEVEL Elements/Study Skills The History of Acadia Summer in Space X Marks the Spot Charts, Diagrams, Maps, National Park Assonance and Metaphor, BEYOND BEYOND Using the Dictionary BEYOND Back to School Saving Larry Preserving Unique Places ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS Grammar ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS Space Adventure Jamal’s Surprises Sentences Acadia National Park Writing Personal Narrative Writing Writing Writing Response to Literature Personal Letter Journal Grammar Grammar Grammar Fluency Assessment Simple and Compound Complex Sentences Run-on Sentences Diagnose and Prescribe Sentences Interpret Assessment Spelling Spelling Spelling Results Words with Long e Words with Long i Words with Long o Let’s Explore 16C

A male and female elk in their new home, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park How did the return of elk to one national park and gray wolves to another affect the ecosystems of those parks? National parks protect wildlife, history, and culture. Still, hundreds of plants and animals have disappeared from our national parks.
