Reading: Informational (RI) The following standards should be taught within the context of informational text. Science and Social Studies text connections should be used if possible. ELAGSE.5.R.I.1: Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. (Asking and Answering Questions, Inferring, Making Connections) Quoting accurately from a text is new learning. ELAGSE.5.RI.2: Determine two or more main ideas of a text and explain how they are supported by key details; summarize the text.

EAGSE.5.RI.3: Explain the relationships or interactions between two or more individuals, events, ideas, or concepts in a historical, scientific, or technical text based on specific information in the text. New learning Key Vocabulary explicitly says, drawing inferences, main idea, summarize, relationships, interactions, concepts, historical, scientific, and technical text What does a good explanation of a text include?

How can I determine the main ideas of a text, even if it is not explicitly stated? How are those main ideas supported? What does a good summary include? How can I tell the most important ideas in an informational piece? How do we best explain relationships and interactions in informational text? How is informational text structured? How can we make sure our explanations are developed? Whole Group group units provide instruction in RL, RI, W, SL, and L standards. See previous page for pacing guides and lessons.
