💛Module 4: W3 - Day 1 - ELA
Lesson Instructions
You will go through two lessons (one in grammar and one in reading).
GRAMMAR
Introduction
To be a great writer, you need to understand the basics of grammar. This helps your reader understand what you are trying to say!
One way to write well is to include dialogue. As discussed previously, dialogue is important because it drives the story forward.
This week, we will be working with commas and quotation marks with dialogue and citing evidence in fiction.
Visual
We have viewed this video before, but it's worth it to have a second look on the location of commas and quotation marks in dialogue!

READING
Introduction
Hey reader! This week, we will be combining writing and reading together so we can use what we read to successfully answer questions.
Sometimes, we have to make inferences from the text in order to find answers. In module 1, we learned about making inferences in nonfiction with this graphic:
Making inferences in fiction is very similar and often necessary when we are trying to understand story elements. This work will help us understand how to make connections in texts and write about it knowledgeably.

Stop and Jot
In Your Notebook: Using this picture and your inference skills, write a narrative about this person! Remember narratives need to have story elements, which includes characters, settings, plot (problem/solution), and dialogue. You will only have today and tomorrow to complete this narrative.
