Life Cycles

Manny is at his family reunion. First he catches up with his grandparents. People
always tell him how much he looks like his grandfather, but Manny doesn’t agree.
His grandfather is so much taller, and his face has lots of wrinkles. His grandfather
has also lost most of his gray hair. Manny got a haircut last month, and already his
hair is getting long again.

Next, Manny spent some time playing with his cousin


Lucia. Lucia is only one year old, but she has tons of
energy. She crawls everywhere, and when she tries to
stand she falls right back down. She doesn’t seem hurt.
She just laughs and tries again. Manny would love to
know what Lucia is thinking, but she can’t talk yet.

Finally, Manny spotted his uncle and aunt. He was


amazed by the size of his aunt’s belly. She said she’s
pregnant with twins. Imagine having two babies inside
you! Manny felt tired just thinking about it.

Why are Manny’s relatives so different? How different will


Manny be when he is his uncle’s or his grandfather’s
age? What does all this have to do with life cycles?

What are the different stages of the life cycle of living things?
A life cycle includes all the stages of life, from birth to death. A stage is just one
step in this process. Manny saw people in different stages of life at his family
reunion. He has already lived through some of these stages. Let’s learn more about
this.

Life Cycles

Everyday Life: Our Life Cycle


A baby is growing in Aunt Kate’s tummy. Manny also started his life in his mother’s
tummy. When he was born, Manny was a baby. He became a toddler like Lucia a
year or so after that. Manny has grown taller as he’s gotten older. In less than 10
years, he will be a teenager. He will finish growing tall and develop stronger bones
and muscles, as he becomes an adult.

After many years, he will have wrinkles and gray hair like his grandfather. Eventually,
he will die. These stages make up the life cycle of a human being. Although the
changes Manny sees happen gradually over time, we notice the differences between
the stages of his family member’s lives.

All living creatures—not only humans—have life cycles. Plants, animals, and even
insects have life cycles. Plants start as seeds. When a seed is planted in good soil
with water, it grows into a seedling. Over time, the seedling grows into a plant. Some
plants produce flowers or fruits, which contain seeds. When the plant dies, the seeds
can be planted to grow new plants.

Take a look at the following photographs of a tomato plant’s life cycle. Can you name
each stage?

How can we learn about the life cycles of different plants and animals?
Scientists observe how plants and animals change over time. Each living thing has
physical traits that make it unique and different from others. (A trait is a
characteristic or property of something, such as height, weight, and skin or fur color.)
The same kinds of living things have similar traits.

For example, look at the tomato plants above. As a baby tomato plant starts to grow,
it looks like a small version of an adult tomato plant. Even though the seedling on the
left is small, it has similar leaves, color, and shape as the adult plant in the center. All
tomato plants have traits like these at each state of their life cycles.

Life Cycles

Many animals have babies that are just like small versions of
themselves. How are the mothers and their babies alike in
these photos? How are they different?

Not all animal babies look like their parents. Frogs are examples of animals that
change a lot from birth to adulthood. Follow the pictures below, starting in the top-left
corner.

A mother frog lays eggs on a branch over water. This


mass of jelly-like eggs is called frog spawn. Baby
frogs, or tadpoles, hatch from these eggs. Like fish,
tadpoles breathe water through gills. They have a long
tail, but no arms or legs.

This adult free frog now has lungs and As the tadpole grows, skin covers its

Life Cycles

You can catch your own tadpoles and watch them grow.

1. Find a plastic tub or a fish tank, a plastic cup or container, and a bucket.
2. Collect rocks or gravel to place on the bottom of your tub.
3. Place a large rock or two in the tub.
4. Visit a pond, small lake, or anywhere with standing water. Take an adult with
you.
5. Look around the edges of the pond for tadpoles.
6. Scoop up some pond water in the bucket.
7. Scoop up the tadpoles with the cup and put them in the bucket. Try not to
touch the tadpoles. The bacteria from your hands could harm them.
8. Fill the tub about three inches high with pond water. You can also use distilled
or spring water. If you use tap water, let it sit about a day before putting in the
tadpoles. This will allow the chlorine in the water to evaporate.
9. Make sure some of the rocks are above the water’s surface. The tadpoles will
need a place to go once they become froglets.
10. Place a couple of plants in the tub.
11. Include some moss and algae from the pond.
12. Let the habitat sit for a day or two. Allow
everything in it to settle.
13. Gently scoop the tadpoles from the bucket.
14. Gently release them into the habitat.
15. Feed them a little lettuce every three days. You
can tear the lettuce into little pieces. Freeze it
overnight. Then allow it to thaw before placing a
pinch of it inside the tadpole container.
16. Remove a third of the water every week and replace it with pond water or clean
distilled water.
17. Watch the tadpoles turn into froglets.
18. Feed them meat as they start moving out of the water. You can feed them
bloodworms or small crickets from a pet store.
19. Place a lid with vents on the tub as the frogs start coming out of the water.
Otherwise, they will hop out of the tub!

Life Cycles

How can we learn about the life cycles of insects?


Some insects look like smaller adults when they are young. This smaller form is
called a nymph. Grasshoppers are insects that are born from eggs and then
become nymphs. A nymph becomes an adult grasshopper as it grows bigger.

Most insects, however, change completely from birth to adulthood. They have four
definite stages in their life cycles:
•Egg: the stage before birth
•Larva: the young, wormlike stage
•Pupa: the inactive, changing stage
•Adult: the fully grown stage

Most insects with this kind of life cycle have wings as adults. Butterflies are good
examples of insects with this kind of life cycle.

The Monarch butterfly hatches from an egg as a


caterpillar. A caterpillar is the butterfly’s larva
stage. It eats and eats to get bigger and
stronger. Then it forms a chrysalis, which is
like a hanging sleeping bag. Inside its chrysalis,
the butterfly goes through its pupa stage.
It changes into a butterfly. Once the butterfly
breaks free, it rests and starts to fly.
It lays eggs and eventually dies.

What Do You Know?


Identify each stage of the following life cycle. Then, search the Internet for
photographs of each stage. Color the pictures based on your photographs.

Life Cycles

Into the Wild


Next time you take your child to an area with wild animals—for example, a zoo,
forest, butterfly house, or park—take that opportunity to focus on the life cycles
of animals. Ask your child to identify or describe the life cycle stage for each animal,
plant, or insect you see. Then ask your child to name the next life cycle stage for
each of these creatures. Point out the other people looking at the animals and ask
your child for the life cycle stages of these people. Allow students to come up with
creative responses, and encourage them to identify the stages based on their own
prior knowledge and to support their ideas with logical evidence.

Make sure you take time to visit the nursery or the insect house if you are going to
the zoo. Children love young animals, and they are perfect examples of the
beginning of a life cycle. This approach will give your kids an opportunity to reinforce
their learning in a fun way.

Here are some questions to discuss with your child:


•How are the life stages you have observed different from one another?
•Why do we name the different stages of a life cycle?
•Why do we compare life cycles of different animals, plants, and insects?
•How many stages of a life cycle can you identify in your family?

reflexiona
Manny está en una reunión familiar. Primero habla de las últimas novedades con sus
abuelos. La gente siempre le dice lo mucho que se parece a su abuelo, pero Manny no
está de acuerdo con eso. Su abuelo es mucho más alto, y su rostro está lleno de arrugas.
Su abuelo también ha perdido casi todo su cabello canoso. Manny se cortó el cabello el
mes pasado y ya le está creciendo otra vez.

Más tarde, Manny juega un rato con su prima Lucía. Lucía solo
tiene un año, pero tiene mucha energía. Gatea por todos lados
y cuando intenta pararse, se vuelve a caer. Parece que no le
duele. Ella se ríe y lo intenta de nuevo. A Manny le encantaría
saber lo que piensa Lucía, pero todavía no sabe hablar.

Por último, Manny encuentra a su tío y a su tía. Está


asombrado por el tamaño de la barriga de su tía. Ella dice que
está embarazada de mellizos. ¡Imagina tener dos bebés dentro
ti! Manny se siente cansado de solo pensarlo.

¿Por qué los parientes de Manny son tan diferentes? ¿Qué tan
diferente será Manny cuando tenga la edad de su tío o de su
abuelo? ¿Qué tiene que ver todo esto con los ciclos de vida?

¿Cuáles son las diferentes etapas del ciclo de vida de los seres vivos?
El ciclo de vida incluye todas las etapas de la vida, desde el nacimiento hasta la
muerte. Una etapa es solo un paso en este proceso. Manny vio a muchas personas en
diferentes etapas de la vida en la reunión familiar. Él ya atravesó algunas de esas etapas.
Aprendamos más acerca de esto.

Vida diaria: Nuestro ciclo de vida


Un bebé crece en el vientre de la tía Kate. Manny también comenzó su vida en el vientre
de su mamá. Cuando nació, Manny era un bebé. Se convirtió en un niño pequeño, como
Lucía, al año de su nacimiento aproximadamente. A medida que creció, Manny se hizo
más alto. En menos de 10 años, será un adolescente. Terminará de crecer y, a medida que
se convierta en adulto, desarrollará huesos y músculos más fuertes. Después de varios
años, tendrá arrugas y canas como su abuelo. Finalmente, morirá.

CICLOS DE VIDA

Estas son las etapas que forman el ciclo de vida del ser humano. Aunque los cambios que
observa Manny ocurren de manera gradual con el transcurso del tiempo, nosotros notamos
las diferencias entre las etapas de la vida de sus familiares.

Todas las criaturas vivas, no solo los seres humanos, tienen ciclos de vida. Las plantas,
los animales e incluso los insectos tienen ciclos de vida. Las plantas comienzan como
semillas. Cuando se planta una semilla en tierra fértil y se le proporciona agua, se
transforma en una planta de semillero. Con el tiempo, esta planta de semillero se convierte
en una planta. Algunas plantas producen flores o frutos, que contienen semillas. Cuando
las plantas mueren, las semillas se pueden plantar para que crezcan plantas nuevas.

¿qué piensas?
Observa las siguientes fotografías del
ciclo de vida de una planta de tomate.
¿Puedes identificar cada etapa?

¿Cómo podemos aprender acerca de los ciclos de vida de diferentes plantas y a ­ nimales?
Los científicos observan cómo las plantas y los animales cambian con el tiempo. Cada
ser vivo tiene características físicas que lo hacen único y diferente de los demás. (Una
característica es una cualidad o propiedad de algo, como la altura, el peso y el color de piel
o pelaje). Los mismos tipos de seres vivos tienen características similares.

Por ejemplo, observa las plantas de tomate en las imágenes. En


cuanto una pequeña planta de tomate comienza a crecer, parece una
versión pequeña de una planta de tomate adulta. Aunque la planta
de semillero de la izquierda es pequeña, tiene hojas, color y forma
similares a la planta adulta del centro. Todas las plantas de tomate
tienen características como estas
en cada etapa de su ciclo de vida.

Muchos animales tienen crías

de ellos mismos. ¿En qué se

Puedes atrapar tus propios renacuajos y verlos crecer.
1. Busca una tina de plástico pequeña o una pecera, un vaso o un recipiente de

2. Junta rocas o grava para colocar en el fondo de la tina.
3. Coloca una o dos rocas grandes en la tina.
4. Visita un estanque, una laguna pequeña o algún otro lugar con agua estancada.
Pídele a una persona adulta que te acompañe.
5. Busca renacuajos cerca de los bordes del estanque.
6. Coloca un poco de agua del estanque en el cubo.
7. Saca los renacuajos con el vaso y colócalos en el cubo. Trata de no tocar los
renacuajos. Las bacterias de tus manos podrían dañarlos.
8. Llena la tina con agua del estanque hasta una altura de tres pulgadas. También
puedes usar agua destilada o de manantial. Si usas agua de la llave, deja que se
asiente durante un día antes de poner en ella los renacuajos. Esto permitirá que se
evapore el cloro del agua.
9. Asegúrate de que algunas rocas estén por
encima de la superficie del agua. Los renacuajos
necesitarán un lugar a donde ir una vez que se
conviertan en ranas jóvenes.
10. Coloca un par de plantas en la tina.
11. Pon musgo y algas del estanque.
12. Deja asentar el hábitat durante un día o dos.
Deja que todo se asiente.
13. Cuidadosamente, saca los renacuajos del cubo.
14. Suéltalos con cuidado en el hábitat.
15. Aliméntalos con un poco de lechuga cada tres días. Puedes romper la lechuga en
pequeños trozos. Congélala durante la noche. Luego, déjala descongelar antes de
poner una pizca de ella dentro del recipiente con renacuajos.
16. Retira un tercio del agua cada semana y reemplázala con agua del estanque o
agua destilada limpia.
17. Observa cómo los renacuajos se convierten en ranas jóvenes.
18. Aliméntalas con carne a medida que comienzan a salir del agua. Puedes
alimentarlas con gusanos o grillos pequeños que puedes conseguir en una tienda
de mascotas.

CICLOS DE VIDA
¿Cómo podemos aprender acerca del ciclo de vida de los insectos?
Algunos insectos se parecen a adultos más pequeños cuando son jóvenes. Esta forma
más pequeña se llama ninfa. Los saltamontes son insectos que nacen de huevos y
luego se convierten en ninfas. Una ninfa se convierte en un saltamontes adulto a medida
que crece.

Sin embargo, la mayoría de los insectos cambia completamente


desde el nacimiento hasta la etapa adulta. Tienen cuatro etapas
definidas en su ciclo de vida:
• Huevo: la etapa previa al nacimiento
• Larva: la etapa joven, con forma de gusano
• Pupa: la etapa inactiva de cambio
• Adulto: la etapa de crecimiento completo

La mayoría de los insectos con este tipo de ciclo de vida tienen


alas cuando son adultos. Las mariposas son un buen ejemplo de
insectos con este tipo de ciclo de vida.

La mariposa monarca sale del huevo como


una oruga. Una oruga es la etapa de larva de
la mariposa. Come continuamente para crecer
y volverse más fuerte. Luego, forma una pupa,
que es como una bolsa de dormir colgante.
Dentro de la bolsa o capullo, la mariposa
atraviesa la etapa de pupa. Se convierte en
mariposa. Una vez que la mariposa se libera,
reposa y comienza a volar. Pone huevos y
finalmente muere.

The Life Cycle of Plants

The Life Cycle of


Plants

Have you ever walked in a forest under tall oak trees and wondered
just how they got there?

An oak tree, like most plants, starts from a seed. The seed of an oak
tree is an acorn. When an acorn lands in a place where the
conditions are right, it will germinate, or begin to grow. Perhaps
you have seen an acorn that looked like it was attached to the
ground by a stalk. That acorn had germinated.

For a seed, good conditions for germinating and growing require


water and warmth. As an acorn soaks up water, it becomes larger
and eventually splits. A root begins to grow down into the soil. The
root will begin to take in water and nutrients. The new oak tree will
need the water and nutrients to grow. After the root has started to
grow, a stem will emerge from the seed. It will grow up out of the
soil. Soon after, leaves will begin to grow on the stem.

All of this growth requires energy. Where


does an acorn get the energy to grow
roots, stems, and leaves? Acorns, like all
seeds, have food stored inside of them.
The acorn uses this food as energy so the
first roots, stems, and leaves can grow.
This stored food eventually runs out.
However, as soon as the new oak tree has
leaves, it can begin to make its own food
for energy. Plants use light, water, and air
to make food in a process called
photosynthesis. The oak tree will carry out
photosynthesis in its leaves. This will give
it energy to grow bigger and taller. The
roots of the tree will continue to take in
water and nutrients as well.

When the oak tree is a mature plant, it will


make acorns. Acorns, like all seeds, form A mature oak tree produces acorns.
in the flowers of plants. They form when
male reproductive cells join egg cells, or female reproductive cells.
When the acorns have formed, they will fall to the ground. Wind,
water, or animals may spread them to new places. If the acorns end
up in an area with good growing conditions, they may sprout. The
life cycles of the new oak trees will begin.

The Life Cycle of Plants

The life cycle of an oak tree is similar to the life cycles of most other
plants. A seed germinates and grows into a new plant. The plant
grows larger over time. When it is mature, the plant produces seeds.
The life cycle begins again when these seeds germinate.

goes swimming, it closes its ears

The sidewinding adder lives in the desert.
Its scutes have a hard time getting a grip
on the loose sand. To move, the adder
arches its back and throws its body in

its head in the same direction. Finally
it pulls its tail along, over and over, in
a sideways, looping motion.

To climb a tree, an Arizona mountain king snake
moves its body like an accordion. The scutes near
its tail hold on tight while the snake lifts its head
higher up the trunk. Then the scutes near its head
grip the bark while the snake pulls up the rest
of its body.

Snakes can wriggle, slither, crawl, swim,


and climb with the help of their scutes.

The True Story of the Three Little Pigs


By
JON SCIESZKA

CHARACTERS: (9) Narrator 1 Narrator 2 Narrator 3 Narrator 4


Narrator 5 Narrator 6 Pig 2 Pig 3 Wolf
________________________________________________________________________
Wolf: Everybody knows the story of the Three Little Pigs. Or at least they think they do.
But I'll let you in on a little secret. Nobody knows the real story, because nobody has ever
heard my side of the story. I'm the Wolf. Alexander T. Wolf. You can call me A 1.

Narrator 1: No one knows just how this whole Big Bad Wolf thing got started, but it's all
wrong.

Narrator 2: Maybe it's because wolves eat cute little animals like bunnies and sheep and
pigs. That's just the way they are. If cheeseburgers were cute, folks would probably think
people were Big and Bad, too.

Narrator 1: But the whole Big Bad thing is all wrong.

Narrator 2: The real story is about a sneeze and a cup of sugar.

Narrator 3:Way back in Once Upon a Time time, our friend, the wolf, was making a
birthday cake for his dear granny.

Narrator 4: He had a terrible sneezing cold.

Narrator 5: He had ran out of sugar.

Narrator 6: So he walked down the street to ask his neighbor for a cup of sugar.

Narrator 1: Now this neighbor was a pig.

Narrator 2: And he wasn't too bright, either.

Narrator 3: He had built his whole house out of straw.

Narrator 4: Can you believe it? Who in his right mind would build a house of straw?

1
82

Narrator 5: So of course the minute the wolf knocked on the door, it fell right in and he
didn't want to just walk into someone else's house.

Narrator 6: So he called.

Wolf: Little Pig, ...Little Pig, are you in?

Narrator 1: No answer .

Narrator 2: He was just about to go home without the cup of sugar for his dear old
granny's birthday cake.

Narrator 3: That's when his nose started to itch.


Narrator 4: He felt a sneeze coming on.
Narrators: 1-2-3-4-5-6 (TOGETHER) Well, he huffed. And he snuffed.

Narrator 1: And he sneezed a great sneeze.

Narrator 2: And you know what? That whole darn straw house fell down. And right in
the middle of the pile of straw was the First Little Pig-dead as a doornail.

Narrator 3: He had been home the whole time.

Narrator 4: It seemed like a shame to leave a perfectly good ham dinner lying there in the
straw. So the wolf ate it up.

Narrator 5: Think of it as a big cheeseburger just lying there.

Narrator 6: He was feeling a little better. But he still didn't have his cup of sugar.

Narrator 1: So he went to the next neighbor's house.

Narrator 2: This neighbor was the First Little Pig's brother. He was a little smarter, but
not much. He had built his house of sticks.

Narrator 3: He rang the bell on the stick house.

Narrator 4: Nobody answered.

Narrator 5: He called...

Wolf: Mr. Pig, ...Mr. Pig, are you in?

Narrator 6: He yelled back:

2
83

2ND Pig: Go away wolf. You can't come in. I'm shaving the hairs on my chinny chin chin.

Narrator 1: He had grabbed the doorknob when he felt another sneeze coming on.

Narrators: 1-2-3-4-5-6: He huffed. And he snuffed.

Narrator 2: And he tried to cover his mouth, but he sneezed a great sneeze.

Narrator 3: And you're not going to believe it, but this guy's house fell down just like his
brother's.

Narrator 4: When the dust cleared, there was the second Little Pig -- dead as a doornail.

Wolfs honor!

Narrator 5: Now you know food will spoil if you leave it out in the open.

Narrator 6: So the wolf did the only thing there was to do. He had dinner again.

Narrator 1: Think of it as a second helping.

Narrator 2: He was getting awfully full. But his cold was feeling a little better.

Narrator 3: And he still didn't have that cup of sugar for his dear old granny's birthday
cake.

Narrator 4: So the wolf went to the next house. This guy was the First and Second Little
Pigs' brother.

Narrator 5: He must have been the brains of the family. He had built his house of bricks.

Narrator 6: The wolf knocked on the brick house. No answer.

Wolf: Mr. Pig,. ..Mr. Pig, are you in?

Narrator 1: And do you know what that rude little porker answered?

3RD Pig: Get out of here, Wolf. Don't bother me again. Talk about impolite!

Narrator 3: He probably had a whole sack full of sugar.

3
84

Narrator 4: And he wouldn't give the wolf even one little cup for his dear, sweet old
granny's birthday cake.

Narrator 5: What a pig!

Narrator 6: The wolf was just about to go home and maybe make a nice birthday card
instead of a cake, when he felt his cold coming on.

Narrators: 1-2-3-4-5-6: He huffed. And he snuffed. And he sneezed once again.

Narrator 1: Then the Third Little Pig yelled:

3RD Pig: And your old granny can sit on a pin!

Narrator 2: The wolf was usually a pretty calm fellow. But when he
heard somebody talk about his dear, sweet old granny like that, he went a little crazy.

Narrator 3: When the cops drove up, of course he was trying to break down this Pig's
door. And the whole time the wolf was huffing and puffing and sneezing and making a
real scene.

Narrator 4: The rest, as they say, is history .

Narrator 5: The news reporters found out about the two pigs he had for dinner.

Narrator 6: They figured a sick guy going to borrow a cup of sugar didn't sound very
exciting.

Narrator 3: So they jazzed up the story with all that "huff and puff" and "blow your
house down" stuff.

Narrator 4: And they made him the Big Bad Wolf.

Narrator 5: That's it.

Narrator 6: The real story .


Wolf: I WAS FRAMED!
Narrators: 1-2-3-4-5-6: But maybe you could loan him a cup of sugar.

Family Time Theater

Reader’s Theater is an opportunity for family bonding while working on fluency. There are many
things families can do together with these scripts while helping children build confidence in their
reading skills.

Tips:
● Read the scripts and divvy up the parts. Any script can be rewritten to have more narrators or
parts can be shared.
● Support younger students reading their parts. They need to continue to use good reading
strategies. These scripts do not have picture support, so talk about the meaning of the story as
you read it. FOr younger children, you might even read aloud the whole script and have the
same discussion you would have as a read aloud. Then, make it into a script.
● Let children select a part, but you might even rotate parts after a few readings.
● You do not have to print scripts, you can read directly from the computer. But, if you want to
print, to save paper and ink you can share one script, just pass it around.
● Remind readers to use their comprehension strategies to
● Remember...Practice, practice, practice!
● Have a special performance. You can always facetime family members and friends.

WHen you finish with your performance, extend the experience.


● Kids can create masks of the characters to work on visualization.
● Kids can create a response, either written or drawing, to the script.
● Kids can draw their favorite scene, or part if there is only one scene.
● Kids can create a comic drawing of the script.

Journal Writing to record your Historical Moments and your big thoughts
This is a great time to record your experiences as a student. Each day, take a little time to journal different small
moments. These might be things you’d like to share with your family, somethings you might want to share with your
class, and somethings you might just want to write down for yourself. In a few years or in many years, you will look
back at this journal and remember how well you handled the moment!

Create a Journal

use an old journal and Find a spot, tab Make a Journal with a cereal box
Make a journal with paper
the page and make a cover sheet and paper

If you can’t find an old journal, then just put together some paper with a paper clip or staple.
As you read through your entries, fold over pages that are just for you. Select at least one to share with someone in
your home, at least once a week.

Journal Entry ideas:


● Small moment stories of daily events ● Fairy tales where you are the hero/heroine
● Lists of things you can do around your house ● Fantasy stories where you go on the adventure
● Family stories - ask your family to share some ● Draw yourself as a superhero

Parent Journal Support:


● Encourage children to journal daily. Kids Can write anything that they want.
● Sometimes, they will want to share their journal, other times they want it to be private. They can always
foldover pages that are considered private.
● Make your own journal and have a weekly share time as a family. You could also buddy journal and leave
notes back and forth.

Helping kids orally rehearse journal entries


● How will your (story/letter/entry/essay/poem) go?
● How might you start?
● Tell me about other parts?
● What will go next?
● What will be the most important part?
● How might you end it?
● What do you think is going to be tricky?
● Who will be your audience?
● Why don’t you say it out loud before writing it down? I’m excited to listen!

Remember that this is their journal. If they want to draw in it, then let them. If they want to make lists, let them
list. If they are always doing the same thing, then offer them an idea. Sometimes, a little encouragement to try
something else, might look like giving them a quote or an idea. It might sound like, “​ what if we had goldilocks
sneak into our house one day…hmmm...how would that story go?”

Have fun!

Making Big Words Game Directions for Parents

This is a game for students to play. It helps them see patterns in words. It helps them build on
word parts to understand how these word parts fit together to make a larger word. The larger
word uses all of the letters.

Make this activity a game for the family. Team up and keep score. In school, kids get extra
points for extra long words. The first to make the big word gets a bonus.

● If your child is having a hard time making words just looking at the letters, have them
write the letters on small pieces of paper and use these letters as manipulatives.

● After making the big words, have students look at the smaller words and notice any
patterns.
○ For instance, “I noticed that I could add the letter ​s​ to some of the words.”
● After they have found all the words they can, encourage them by giving hints such as,
“What would happen if you added replaced the letter ​s​ with the letter ​p​ in the word ​said​?”

Para subir a un árbol, la serpiente real montañera de
Arizona, mueve su cuerpo como un acordeón. Las
escamas especiales cerca de la cola se agarran fuertes

escamas cerca de la cabeza se apoyan de la corteza
y así la serpiente avanza el resto del cuerpo.
Serpientes pueden retorcerse, deslizarse,
gatear, nadar y escalar con la ayuda de
sus escamas especializadas o conchas.

Este es un buen momento para anotar tus experiencias (pequeñas,
breves o memorables) como estudiante durante este tiempo diferente.
Estos podrán ser momentos que te gustaría compartir en el futuro con
tu familia, tu clase o algunas cosas que tal vez quieras recordar. ¡En
unos años, verás tu diario y recordarás esta época que viviste!

Apoyo para padres:


 Anime a su hijo diariamente. Ellos pueden escribir sobre lo que
quieran.
 A veces, su hijo querrá compartir su diario, otras veces querrá
que sea privado. Doblará las páginas que considera privadas.
 Haga su propio diario y tenga un tiempo para compartir
semanalmente como familia.

Ayudando a los estudiantes a ensayar oralmente


sus escrituras
 ¿Cómo irá tu (historia, cuento, carta, entrada, ensayo o poema)?
 ¿Cómo podría comenzar?
 Cuéntame sobre otras partes...
 ¿Qué pasará después?
 ¿Cuál es la parte más importante?
 ¿Cómo podría terminar?
 ¿Qué crees que será complicado?
 ¿Quién será tu audiencia?
 ¿Por qué no lo dices en voz alta antes de escribirlo? ¡Estoy
emocionado(a) de escucharte!
Recuerde que este es un diario. Si su hijo quiere dibujar en él, déjelo.
Si quiere hacer listas, déjelo hacer una lista. Si siempre está
escribiendo lo mismo, ofrézcale ideas. A veces, con un poco de apoyo
para intentar otras cosas, puede ser todo lo que necesitan para
intentar. Alguna idea podría ser, "¿qué pasaría si viniera Ricitos de Oro
a nuestra casa un día ... hmmm ... cómo sería ese cuento?"

¡Qué se diviertan!
