00:32 | article . You can use your pencil to highlight any | |
00:36 | information that you think will help you in finding the | |
00:39 | main idea . We're going to be using the reading | |
00:42 | cards , The blue reading cards . So when you're | |
00:44 | done simply turn it over so we'll know when we | |
00:46 | can move on . You may begin . Mhm . | |
01:04 | Mhm . Okay . Stop . Thank you for all | |
01:12 | reading that passage on your own and marking key information | |
01:15 | that you found in the text . I will now | |
01:18 | read it to you . Feel free to also mark | |
01:20 | something . If you don't feel you got it on | |
01:21 | your read . Feel free to market at this time | |
01:24 | . Water striders imagine yourself zooming across the top of | |
01:28 | a pond or lake without sinking in while . This | |
01:32 | might be hard for you to do . It is | |
01:35 | easy for a water strider . A water strider is | |
01:39 | a water bug that looks like a large mosquito . | |
01:42 | What makes it different from a mosquito , however , | |
01:45 | is the fact that it can walk across the water | |
01:49 | . You can find water striders on the surface of | |
01:51 | some ponds , marshes and still water . Water striders | |
01:56 | do more than just walk across the water . They | |
01:59 | also catch and eat their meals on the water as | |
02:01 | well additionally , because they spend more of their time | |
02:06 | on the water , Water striders feed mostly on other | |
02:09 | insects that live near water . In fact , water | |
02:13 | striders only go inland when rain or strong winds forced | |
02:18 | them off the water . The design of a water | |
02:21 | striders body makes it easy for the insect to walk | |
02:25 | on the water . Its body is only one half | |
02:28 | inch long and it is covered with scales that keep | |
02:31 | it from getting heavy and sinking . Like all insects | |
02:35 | , the water strider has six legs . The front | |
02:38 | pair of legs is short while the middle and back | |
02:41 | legs are very long . The longer legs can spread | |
02:44 | over a larger area of water and are useful for | |
02:47 | rowing and steering across the water . No one leg | |
02:51 | is heavy enough to sink the insect . Water striders | |
02:55 | also have very good vision and can move quickly . | |
02:59 | These traits helped keep them from becoming prey or food | |
03:03 | for other insects . Okay , now it's time for | |
03:07 | us to work on some text dependent questions . We're | |
03:10 | going to play bingo while we answer the questions today | |
03:15 | , you have some spiders that you're going to use | |
03:18 | as your markers . Here's how the game will be | |
03:21 | played . Your entire group is one team . I | |
03:26 | will tell you what row or column we're working on | |
03:29 | at that time . Whenever I show you what row | |
03:33 | or column we're working on , your team is going | |
03:36 | to try to find the answers to those questions . | |
03:39 | They must be highlighted in the text and you must | |
03:43 | be able to tell me where you found it with | |
03:45 | the paragraph in the sentence number . Here we go | |
03:49 | . The first thing we're gonna work on is across | |

04:24 | ? Okay , we're going to find it in the | |
04:36 | text . You have to be able to highlight it | |
04:39 | to use it for an answer . What fact can | |

04:49 | . What did you see ? I saw sense five | |
05:00 | going and finish awesome job , awesome . Okay . | |
05:08 | I heard my first group water striders . I heard | |
05:11 | it . Okay , let's see if they've got it | |
05:14 | now they're gonna help you out . Because remember when | |
05:16 | we respond , the first thing we do is tell | |
05:20 | the paragraph , then the sentence number , then we | |
05:23 | give our fact but then we answer our question and | |
05:27 | I'm gonna type the answer up here that way you'll | |
05:29 | make sure you've highlighted the correct section . Here we | |
05:32 | go . Which insect does a water strider resemble Hudson | |
05:36 | ? Can you tell me where you found that answer | |
05:38 | , paragraph two sentence one of a water strider is | |
05:41 | a water bug that looks like a large mosquito . | |
05:43 | Okay , so he said paragraph two , sentence one | |
05:47 | . And what is your answer then ? Large mosquito | |
05:52 | ? A large mosquito . He is correct looking good | |
06:01 | . Next one . How would you describe the size | |
06:04 | of a water strider ? How would you describe the | |
06:07 | size ? I'm still on this table because they were | |
06:09 | the first group victor . Can you answer that question | |
06:12 | for us ? I'm paragraph for the second center and | |
06:15 | says , Its body is only 1/2 in lock . | |
06:20 | Ready looking good . Two out of three . Let's | |
06:26 | see if they can get the last one . What | |
06:28 | facts can you select to show the speed of a | |
06:32 | water strider ? Dylan ? It's your turn , paragraph | |
06:35 | five sentence one says water striders also have very good | |
06:40 | vision and can move quickly . She got it ready | |
06:44 | , looking good , Great job . Now we are | |
06:48 | moving to the center column . The next question is | |
06:53 | , since the title of the article is water striders | |
06:58 | , would you find a water strider on land ? | |
07:02 | Next 1 ? How would you summarize what water striders | |
07:07 | eat ? Go , Sure , well , it's time | |
07:13 | to wake . You have to do this . You | |
07:15 | know , we don't she only said this column right | |
07:19 | now , but you'll need to highlight that answer to | |
07:21 | be able to put a spider there . You'd have | |
07:23 | to highlight that . Did you highlighted when we went | |
07:25 | over it ? Okay , make sure your whole group | |
07:28 | has that highlighted and you can put you a spider | |
07:30 | there . If not in a minute , you won't | |
07:32 | be able to use it . Does everyone have it | |
07:35 | ? Okay . Now you can now go , I | |
07:40 | think , I think , you know , it's the | |
07:44 | third time I think that you possibly could find it | |
07:55 | possibly . Okay . But remember we worked on opinions | |
07:59 | and our prior knowledge , we can't bring any of | |
08:01 | that to the text . So you have to be | |
08:04 | able to find it in that passage to highlight it | |
08:07 | spends most of the time . That's okay . But | |
08:10 | the question is look since the title the articles water | |
08:13 | striders , would you find a water strider on land | |
08:16 | ? No , remember I uh something pushes it off | |
08:23 | . Okay . Find that you're getting there , find | |
08:25 | it . She said I remember but now help her | |
08:28 | find it . She remembers it , talked about it | |
08:29 | pushing it off . I heard one right here let's | |
08:34 | give everyone another second or two to work on it | |
08:37 | a little bit further . But you are the group | |
08:38 | that I heard . Okay , Okay . Stop . | |
08:42 | Emily's group up here thinks they have the answers now | |
08:45 | . Remember if your group didn't get to it , | |
08:47 | you need to listen to where you can find the | |
08:50 | information in the text and highlight it . If you | |
08:53 | highlight it you can give yourself a spider because you | |
08:56 | need all the spiders you can get on there . | |
08:59 | Okay ? Emily , here we go . It says | |
09:00 | since the title of the article is water striders , | |
09:03 | would you find a water strider on land ? No | |
09:09 | it's no because it says in paragraph three on the | |
09:12 | last sentence . In fact water striders only go inland | |
09:16 | when rain or strong winds forced them off the water | |
09:18 | . That is the text she needed . Now Emily | |
09:22 | , let me ask you that question . The question | |
09:24 | is would you find a water strider on land ? | |
09:29 | No not usually . Okay but listen to it one | |
09:33 | more time . In fact , water striders only go | |
09:36 | inland when rain or strong wind forces them off the | |
09:41 | water . Do you know what inland is ? Emily | |
09:43 | ? Yes , ma'am . Okay . So will they | |
09:45 | ever go on land ? Yes when it's raining or | |
09:50 | it's blowing really hard wind ? Okay . When they're | |
09:52 | forced that way . Even though they're called water striders | |
09:56 | , you could possibly find them on land . Okay | |
10:01 | . And next one josh answer this one for me | |
10:04 | . How would you summarize what water striders eat ? | |
10:09 | Mm hmm , paragraph three second sentence . Uh Well | |
10:15 | , third sentence additional . It says additionally because they | |
10:19 | spend most of their time on water . Water striders | |
10:23 | being mostly on instead insects that live near water . | |
10:28 | Let's give both Emily and josh are cheer looking good | |
10:34 | . Again , if you highlighted that , even if | |
10:36 | your group didn't make it , you can put you | |
10:38 | a spider there . Next row , here we go | |
10:44 | . Bottom row , bottom row , what would happen | |
10:48 | if water striders lost their vision ? You should already | |
10:52 | have this one answered . And how would you show | |
10:55 | your understanding that water striders don't sink go ? Uh | |
11:06 | Also have very good vision . Can Yeah , Yeah | |
11:19 | , I got that wrong . Uh It says these | |
11:30 | traits keep them from becoming price foods or food present | |
11:35 | . Their striders lost their vision . All right , | |
11:39 | stop . We've got another group . I like how | |
11:42 | we have different groups finishing what would happen if water | |
11:46 | striders lost their vision . Um Adriana share with us | |
11:50 | where you found that answer In paragraph five sentence one | |
11:54 | that says water strider , water striders also have very | |
11:59 | good vision and can move quickly . Okay , so | |
12:02 | what would be your answer to the question ? What | |
12:04 | would happen if water striders lost their vision and wouldn't | |
12:07 | be able to move very quickly ? We're thinking a | |
12:09 | little deeper though they lost their vision . This is | |
12:12 | going to have a bigger impact on their lives . | |
12:16 | Okay , let's let LS group help us out on | |
12:18 | that . They they highlighted a different fact and see | |
12:21 | if this will change your view here . Well , | |
12:25 | on the paragraph five , the last sentence it says | |
12:30 | these traits help keep from them coming pray . And | |
12:35 | if they lost their vision , they probably become pray | |
12:39 | because they wouldn't know where they were . And uh | |
12:43 | they might come into where the prey is . Very | |
12:47 | good . Let's go to give her the chair looking | |
12:51 | good . Does that group see how that answer got | |
12:53 | changed ? You were right . They're not going to | |
12:56 | move as fast . Okay , But is that the | |
12:57 | most important fact ? No becoming prey is a lot | |
13:00 | more important . Okay . All right . Okay . | |
13:06 | And the last one on the right , it says | |
13:08 | , how would you show your understanding that water striders | |
13:12 | don't sink , Katie , help me out on that | |
13:15 | . Where did you all find your information ? Their | |
13:18 | body is only one half an inch long and it's | |
13:22 | covered with scales . That would keep some um from | |
13:25 | heavy sinking . Okay so that's paragraph for its uh | |
13:29 | sentence two . Okay I agree that kind of shows | |
13:34 | you they're not gonna sink . But I feel like | |
13:36 | another group got another fact that was just a little | |
13:39 | bit stronger . You're not wrong . You are not | |
13:42 | wrong . But let's see if someone can support it | |
13:44 | a little bit more . Jada . Can you share | |
13:47 | with that with us please ? Paragraph four . The | |
13:51 | lesson says no one leg is heavy enough to sink | |
13:54 | the insect . Okay , so we know it's not | |
13:57 | gonna sink because not even one of its legs is | |
14:00 | heavy enough to sink it . All right . I | |
14:02 | guess you can tell what we have left The Middle | |
14:05 | two Questions . You may go . Let's see if | |
14:08 | another group can get it . How you okay can | |
14:15 | you share with your group what classified means ? How | |
14:20 | would you describe ? How would you describe ? Okay | |
14:26 | , a little more than that ? A classification ? | |
14:29 | Okay . Think of food . Think of food . | |
14:32 | Are there different types of food ? Okay . Name | |
14:34 | some types of food for me . A sandwich . | |
14:39 | Okay . Fruit meat . Did you have anything else | |
14:46 | give me sugar ? Nothing sweet , not a brownie | |
14:50 | or anything . A granola bar . Those are classifications | |
14:55 | . Now you're looking for a classification . A type | |
15:01 | , there's something in the text that's going to help | |
15:03 | you with that . How would you classify it ? | |
15:10 | Think about like the big word food . And then | |
15:14 | we broke it into like categories . What category is | |
15:19 | a water strider gonna fit into ? Or we need | |
15:24 | to work on classify over here . Okay , so | |
15:27 | we put it into categories . I want you to | |
15:28 | take the word classified . Think of the category . | |
15:31 | I wonder what a water strider . What category would | |
15:34 | it fall into in this text ? It tells you | |
15:38 | , It tells you what that is . Where did | |
15:40 | you find that ? Let him find it for you | |
15:44 | . Where did you find that Graham ? What category | |
15:47 | ? We're gonna put it in ? Paragraph or paragraph | |
15:52 | four . You're there bad bandit . Like all insects | |
15:58 | . The water Shrider has six legs . That was | |
16:01 | paragraph for Yeah . Right here . Like all insects | |
16:06 | . Great . I'm getting five . Okay . I | |
16:10 | had a group over here . I heard them . | |
16:12 | This one was a little challenging because we had some | |
16:14 | vocab . All right . Have a seat . Have | |
16:17 | a seat . I think our board is full . | |
16:19 | Let's see if we can finish our answers . Classify | |
16:22 | stump . Some people . The word classify that some | |
16:25 | vocab we're gonna need to work on . How would | |
16:27 | you classify water strider ? Um Shelby . Can you | |
16:30 | tell me where you found that ? We count it | |
16:33 | in paragraph four minutes three . Okay . Will you | |
16:37 | read it for me ? It's just like all insects | |
16:40 | . The water strider has six legs . So how | |
16:43 | would you classify it is a what ? And check | |
16:47 | it is an insect . We had to work on | |
16:49 | classify . Okay . Classify . And then the last | |
16:53 | one for the day on questioning is what information would | |
16:56 | you use to support the view that water striders spend | |
17:00 | most of their time on water Brenda . Can you | |
17:04 | answer that for me ? Um In paragraph three , | |
17:07 | the first sentence , the first two symptoms is it | |
17:12 | says water striders do more than just walk across the | |
17:15 | water . They also catch and eat their meals on | |
17:17 | water as well . Eat and catch their meals on | |
17:20 | water . And then what was the first sentence ? | |
17:24 | Because I think that does help justify your answer . | |
17:26 | They do more than just walk on . Okay . | |
17:28 | They do more than walk . They do more than | |
17:30 | walk both of them get the chair . Yeah , | |
17:34 | looking good . |
