Fluency
  • Good readers use intonation to emphasize the
    meaning of the words they read.
  • You should sound natural as you read nonfiction
    by
  • Emphasizing important words
  • Looking for end and other punctuation

7
Fluency
  • Im going to read page 377 in A Tree Is
    Growing.
  • Page 377
  • A tree needs sunlight, air, soil, and water to
    grow. Water travels through passages in the
    trunk and branches up to the leaves. The water
    moves up the trunk as it if it is being sucked
    through a straw.
  • The first sentence tells me what a tree needs to
    grow. The words sunlight, air, soil, and water
    are important, so I will emphasize them. I also
    see that there are commas between each of the
    words in the list, so I will pause slightly
    between the words.
  • Lets echo-read this same page.

8
Authors Purpose
  • What are the reasons authors might write?
  • To inform
  • To entertain
  • To persuade
  • If the reader knows the authors purpose, then
    what he or she reads will be easier to understand.

9
Sunflowers
  • Have you ever seen a sunflower seed? Actually,
    you might not know that you saw one because
    sunflower seeds are very small. Sunflower seeds
    are no larger than one of your fingernails. When
    a sunflower is fully grown, though, the plant can
    be more than six feet tall, and the flower may be
    larger than a dinner plate!
  • Once sunflower seeds are planted, it takes
    about a week for them to sprout. Then the
    flowers begin to grow. To reach their full size,
    sunflowers need a lot of sunshine. In fact, they
    need at least six hours of direct sunlight each
    day. Perhaps this is why sunflowers are so tall.
    They might be trying to reach the sun that they
    need so much!

10
Authors Purpose
  • Why do you think the author wrote this selection?
  • To inform the reader about sunflowers
  • How can you tell?
  • It gives facts it tells how sunflowers grow
