I work with 6, 7,8 graders who are still struggling with their reading and we use the
Someone/Something / Verb (did something) / Finish the thought... This is a graphic structure I use to help them create a summary sentence. >>> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 11/3/2008 10:36 AM >>> Hi I have a group of Title I, 4th and 5th graders who are reading on a second grade level. We are working on summarizing and it is hard for them. We have summarized nursery rhymes, using the 5 W's. They do fairly well on these because these are short and familiar. What other instruction do you give regarding summarizing? **************Plan your next getaway with AOL Travel. Check out Today's Hot 5 Travel Deals!
