Description
In this lesson, from ReadWriteThink, students begin with a shared reading of the story "Go Away, Big Green Monster!" by Ed Emberley. After the shared reading, students engage in a paired reading of the online version to build fluency and word recognition skills. They also examine onset/rime patterns by generating word families, review sight words in the story, and play a card game to reinforce high-frequency vocabulary. As a culminating activity, students draw their own big green monsters and write stories about the monsters to publish online. This writing exploration allows an integrated application of phonics.
