During Reading
Tell children that today they will be reading with a partner. Make sure the partners know exactly where they will be sitting while reading and what they are to do while waiting for others to finish. Explain that when finished reading, they are to trace their hand on a piece of paper and write one thing on each finger that the girl in the story does to stay healthy. Remind children that when they are not reading, they are the coach. Also, remind them they are not to just tell their partner the word.
Setting the Purpose
Say: The purpose for reading today is to learn what the girl in the text does to stay healthy.
Using the Worksheet
Give children the Worksheet and tell them that today they will be comparing the things they do to stay healthy with those of the girl in the text.
