Connections to Context:
The emphasis on the beauty and
importance of culture will remind this
classroom full of ELLs and
differences that it is okay to be
different and that those differences
make us better as a whole. Its a
good reminder that we if our stories
are shared, it help other people
become better.
Established Goals
Ask and answer questions to demonstrate
understanding of a text, referring explicitly to
the text as the basis for the answers.
(R.CM.0302)
Recount stories, including fables, folktales,
and myths from diverse cultures; determine
the central message, lesson, or moral and
explain how it is conveyed through details in
the text.
Describe characters in a story (e.g., their
traits, motivations, or feelings) and explain
how their actions contribute to the sequence
of events. (R.NET.03.03)
Determine the meaning of words and phrases
as they are used in a text, distinguishing
literal from non-literal language. (R.CM.03.03)
Refer to parts of stories, dramas, and poems
when writing or speaking about a text, using
terms such as chapter, scene, and stanza;
describe how each successive part builds on
earlier sections.
Distinguish their own point of view from that
of the narrator or those of the characters.
Explain how specific aspects of a texts
illustrations contribute to what is conveyed by
the words in a story (e.g., create mood,
emphasize aspects of a character or setting).

the high end of the grades 2-3 text complexity
band independently and proficiently.
