Produce Simple Sentences
This Language lesson requires students to identify and produce simple sentences on given topics. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments.

Analyze the Structure of a Narrative
C.4.G (Reading) demonstrate comprehension of increasingly complex English by participating in shared reading, retelling or summarizing material, responding to questions, and taking notes commensurate with content area and grade level needs;
C.4.JC.4.J (Reading) demonstrate English comprehension and expand reading skills by employing inferential skills such as predicting, making connections between ideas, drawing inferences and conclusions from text and graphic sources, and finding supporting text evidence commensurate with content area needs; and
C.4.KC.4.K (Reading) demonstrate English comprehension and expand reading skills by employing analytical skills such as evaluating written information and performing critical analyses commensurate with content area and grade-level needs.

Analyze the Main Idea
This reading informational text lesson covers how to analyze central ideas in an informational text. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students have to identify the topic sentence and summarize the key details of each paragraph, and then analyze how these facts support the given central idea.

Solve One-Step Equations (Addition & Subtraction)
6.EE.5 Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true? Use substitution to determine whether a given number in a specified set makes an equation or inequality true.
6.EE.66.EE.6 Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.
6.EE.76.EE.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.
This expressions and equations lesson teaches students how to solve one-step equations. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students solve one-step equations with a variety of operations. The focus of this lesson is to solve one-step equations related to word problems.
