1 Lakewood Summer Literacy Initiative 2013 MENU For Students Entering Grades 3, 4, or 5 1. Preview this menu. 2. Read 4 books: 2 Fiction and 2 Nonfiction (don t forget to complete any pre-reading activities you choose before you read). 3. Select and complete an activity from the Appetizers, Entrées, Sides, and Desserts sections of this menu so that you give your brain a complete meal! *Appetizers and Entrées activities are for Fiction and Sides and Desserts activities are for Nonfiction. 4. All students must complete the Complimentary Beverage activity. 5. Completed assignments should be given to your teacher on the first day of school.
2 Appetizers (Fiction) Predict what the book will be about based only on the cover and the title. After you read, evaluate the accurateness of your prediction. Respond to the correct pair of questions: A. Were you completely correct? How did you know what would happen? B. Were you close to correct? How did your prediction differ from what really happened? C. Was your prediction completely inaccurate? What made you think that you were predicting correctly and how did your prediction change as you read? Before you read, establish a purpose for reading. After you read the title, review any pictures or illustrations, and read any introduction or preface, write at least two purpose questions that will guide you through your reading. To decide on your questions, think about what you d like to find out about. As you read, find the answers to your purpose questions. Make a connection between one of your books and any other books that you remember (a text-to-text connection) and make a connection between one of your books and something currently happening in the world, something that happened in the past, something you learned about in school, or anything outside of yourself (a text-toworld connection). Don t forget to explain how you make the connections! Create a sign that suggests the conflict of the book. If you can, use the computer to create your sign!
3 Entrees (Fiction) Create a comic strip that tells about your favorite part of the books. The comic strip should have a minimum of six scenes or panels. Include comic-style illustrations in either black and white or color. Include words with dialogue bubbles, captions, or as a part of the panel. Write a Book Review including the following information: Title, author, date of publication, main characters, theme of the book, author s purpose for writing, brief summary (no more than one paragraph), and if you would recommend this book (don t forget to tell why or why not!). Trace one theme throughout your Summer Reading books. Describe how the theme is seen in each text. Then, explain how reading different books with the same theme either helped you to better understand the theme and why or why it didn t help you. Provide examples from the texts to prove your ideas. Sides (Nonfiction) Compare and Contrast the author s point of view on the topic to your point of view on the topic. Explain your reasoning. Describe in writing the organization of sentences and paragraphs in the text (ex. Compare/contrast, cause/effect, sequence, etc.). How does this organization help the reader to understand the author s ideas? Explain. Make a list of any words that you didn't understand when you were reading. Use a dictionary to define those words. Then, go back to the text and decide if knowing the definition of the word changed the way you understand the text. If it did, put a check next to the word in your list. If it didn t, put a 0 next to the word on your list.
4 Desserts (Nonfiction) Summarize the text in 1 paragraph. Remember that a summary ought to include only the author s main idea and the key points that support this idea. Write a Nonfiction text using one of your Summer Reading Nonfiction texts as a model. Decide what the purpose of the text will be (to entertain, to persuade, to inform, or to explain) and select one of the following topics on which to write: Your family vacation; Your favorite kind of food; Why everyone should play your favorite sport or game; or your favorite family member. Articles should be 2-3 paragraphs. Complimentary Beverage Complete the Self-Evaluation Rubric!
