Grade 3 3 Lesson 3: Animales en peligro © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 3_323176_BL_VRTG_L03_animalsdanger_SPA.indd 3 1/22/10 5:24:19 AM Writing about Reading Vocabulary Practice Have students complete the Vocabulario questions on Hoja reproducible 3.1. Responding Have students complete the vocabulary activities on page 11. Remind them to answer the Word Teaser on p. 12. (Answer: cliente) Reading Nonfiction Nonfiction Features: Captions and Photos Remind students that nonfiction has many special features to help readers find and understand important information. Captions and photos are two of these features. Explain that captions can be short phrases or labels, as on page 3, or complete sentences with more information, as on page 4. Captions tell what a photo or diagram or map is about. Reading the captions in a nonfiction book is a good way to preview the book before reading the main text. Photos are another important source of information. They often give additional information that is not in the text. Have students look at the photo on page 5. Ask what information they can learn from the photo (los edificios y las ciudades abarcan áreas cada vez más grandes) and from the caption (muchos animales pierden sus hogares porque los humanos construyen ciudades). Then have students choose a photo from the book and write two new captions for it, one short and one longer. Writing Prompt: Thinking Beyond the Text Have students write a response to the prompt on page 6. Assessment Prompts • Which words on page 8 help the reader know the meaning of costear? • In paragraph 2 on page 8, find the word that gives a clue to the meaning of clientes. • What word on page 5 means almost the same as ocupa?
