READING
We
are continuing to read books about living and working in communities. Today’s book is The Night Worker.
*please
fill in small anchor chart
Title:
The Night Worker
Author:
Kate Banks
Illustrator:
Georg Hallensleben
*discuss
vocabulary
engineer-(person who is
trained to design and build things)
mammoth-(huge)
hoist-(to lift something very heavy)
gravel-(small loose stones)
cement-(gray power used to make concrete)
concrete-(a building material made of mixed up sand, gravel,
cement, and water) (sometimes people use the words cement and
concrete as the same thing)
bulldozer-(powerful tractor with a wide blade at the front,
used to move dirt and rocks)
excavator-(machine used to dig up dirt)
foundation-(the base on which a building is built)
*listen
to/watch the story on youtube.com
Ask: ‘What
is Papa’s job?’ (engineer, builds buildings)
‘Why do you think these people
work at night?’
(some people do work on the building during the day
and some work at night, this way the building is built faster than if people
only work on it during the day)
‘In the story it says ‘the men look at the plans of
the project.’ Why do you think this it is important to have plans?’
(Plans help everyone know what has to be done and they
will do things the same way because of the plans.)
‘When Alex got to push the levers for the loader, how
do you think he felt?’ (excited, scared, proud)
‘When the author says ‘all motion stopped like a held
breath’ what do you think she meant?’
(Ideas: *work
was ending for the day
*sometimes when we finish something hard we have been
working on, we might take a deep breath because we are proud of the work we did
*in the story when the whistle blew to end the day
everything stopped for a minute, like when the fire drill bells rings and we
all stop and look at each other then get on line to leave)

The 11th toy is an elephant.
The last toy is a drummer.

question

*discuss
what the ordinal number is of the wind-up toy just before
the
elephant. (have them underline just
before)
*explain
we can’t see this toy because it is on the shelf (you can refer to the objects
you used to review 1st through 10th
*ask
them what number comes just before
11 (answer 10), so what is the ordinal number just before 11th ? (answer: 10th)
(this
is an important question because books like to ask these types of questions,
especially on tests)
*stress
that they have to put in the ‘th’ after the number or they will not be
