Direct Instruction
Today we’ll be learning about poems, and what makes a poem different from other kinds of writing. Let’s start by listening to a poem called “Snowflakes.” As you listen, form pictures in your mind.
Give an expressive oral reading of the nursery rhyme:
The snowflakes are falling by ones and by twos;There’s snow on my jacket, and snow on my shoes;There’s snow on the bushes, and snow on the trees.It’s snowing on everything now, if you please.
Ask students what they pictured when they heard the poem. Encourage them to give details about what is in the scene, and who might be speaking the words in the poem.
This poem helps me picture white snowflakes falling more and more heavily, and piling up everywhere. In a poem, words may be repeated to show a big idea. Listen as I reread the poem. Every time you hear the word snow, raise your hand.
Reread the poem so that students can identify the repeated word snow.
Hearing the word snow again and again helps us picture all that snow falling and piling up!
A poem often has rhythm. The rhythm in a poem makes it like a song that we can clap to. Listen as I read the poem again. Clap along to hear the rhythm.
Reread the poem. Model clapping to the beat of its lines—four claps to a line—as students clap along.
We’ve seen that a poem can help us form pictures in our mind. We know that a poem may have repeated words. A poem has rhythm. There’s something else that a poem may have. Listen as I read the first two lines of the poem, and pay special attention to the words that I say loudly.
Read aloud just the first two lines, using a louder voice to say twos and shoes.
DescriptionSupplemental Lexia Lessons can be used for whole class, small group or individualized instruction to extend learning and enhance student skill development. This lesson is designed to help students recognize that sound, meaning, and feeling are combined in a poem. Students also learn the terms rhythm and rhyme and use them to talk about poetry.
Teacher Tips
You can adapt this lesson for older students by showing them the poems in this lesson and reading together.

Curriculum Connection
Display illustrations from familiar stories. Ask students to use an idiom to describe a specific scene. For example, a character who is in trouble may be described as in hot water. Then, discuss how the illustration adds to students’ understanding of the text.
page 1
IdiomsAn idiom (e.g., to be on top of the world) is a group of words that do not mean what they seem to say. By studying idioms, students develop their awareness of figurative expressions and expand their descriptive language skills.
Classroom Ideas
As necessary, teach or review the definition of an idiom. Explain to students that they should use sentence clues to figure out the meaning of an idiom. For example, in the sentence Cal won first prize, so he was on top of the world, students should recognize that someone cannot literally be on top of the world. Have them underline the idiom and, with support, look at the rest of the sentence and deduce the meaning (e.g., Since Cal won first prize, he is probably really happy).
Write an idiom on one index card and its meaning on another card. Create a deck of up to 15 pairs. Shuffle the cards and have students work together to match the idioms to their meanings.
Have students act out learned idioms in a charades-style manner or in brief skits. Fellow students should guess the idiom being portrayed.
Distribute one idiom to each student or pair of students. Have some students illustrate the actual meaning of the idiom, while others should illustrate the literal meaning of the idiom. Once the drawings are finished, ask students to find their idiom partners without talking (by sharing illustrations only).
Use idioms as writing prompts or discussion points (e.g., Have you ever thrown in the towel? Do you remember a time when you felt like a fish out of water?). Citing specific examples, students can discuss these topics with peers or form a written response to these questions.

LEVEL 10 | Structural AnalysisSuffixes, Lesson 1
Lexia Reading Core5LEXIA LESSONS
Direct Instruction
��Today,�we�are�going�to�learn�about�suffixes.�Suffixes�are�word�parts�that�can�be�added�to�the�end�of�a�base�word�to�change�the�meaning�slightly.�
Display the word cup.
This�word�is�cup.�I�can�use�the�word�in�the�sentence�“There�is�a�cup”�and�I�know�it�means�there�is�only�one�cup.�But,�I�can�add�the�suffix�–s�to�the�end�of�the�word�cup,�and�that�will�mean�there�is�more�than�one�cup.
Add an s to the end of the word to make cups.
So�now�I�can�use�this�word�in�the�sentence�“There�are�two�cups.”�The�–s�at�the�end�changes�the�meaning�of�the�word�cup.�It�makes�it�plural,�which�means�more�than�one.
Find an object in the room that can be made plural by adding –s (e.g., desk, pencil, or book). Name the object using the base word, then model adding the suffix –s as above.
Display the plural word for the object and use the following procedure to model how to identify the suffix.
�� �First,�I�look�to�see�if�there�is�a�suffix�–s�at�the�end�of�the�word.�I�circle�it.�Next,�I�underline�the�base�word.�Finally,�I�write�the�suffix�–s�next�to�the�word.�
Repeat this procedure using the suffix –es. Possible objects include: watch, hall pass, bench.
Then, write the suffix –s above the words that end in –s. Write the suffix –es above the words that end in –es.
�� �The�suffixes�–s and –es�can�be�added�to�base�words�to�change�their�meaning�slightly.�Both�–s and –es�make�a�base�word�plural,�meaning�more�than�one.�We�use�the�suffix�–s�to�make�most�words�plural.�We�use�the�suffix�–es�when�a�base�word�ends�with�the�letters�ch,�sh,�tch,�ss,�x,�or�z.
DescriptionThis lesson is designed to help students recognize common suffixes and understand that suffixes can change the meaning or form of a base word. The ability to identify suffixes serves as a foundation for understanding the most common spelling rules and thinking about the structure of words (prefix, root/base word, suffix).
Teacher Tips
This lesson teaches suffixes using suffixes –s and –es. Use the same sequence to give students practice with other suffixes (listed in the Adaptations section).
