 * 3rd grade Active Reading**

Content Lesson- I will introduce students to the code for text to self, text to text and text to the world. I will then explain what each one means. Then I will use the following books to read and explain active reading.

__Stormy’s Hat__ by Eric A. Kimmel This is a true story about the invention of the railroad cap. I could do T-S because my grandfather worked on the railroad. I could do T-T because I have read other stories where people need something so they have to invent something. T-W would be the railroad now ships goods all over the country. T-W could also be the transcontinental railroad that we study about in Social Studies. __The Three Snow Bears__ by Jan Brett __The Three Snow Bears__ by Jan Brett is similar to __Goldilocks and the Three Bears.__ It uses the Inuit people and polar bears instead of the original characters. This would work great for T-T. Also I could talk about snow and cold for T-S since we live inNebraska. I could use the Iditarod race for T-W because there are sled dogs in the book.

After modeling the students will do independent practice on labeling text.

Duration 3 – 45 minute periods
