This one-time guided reading lesson serves as an introduction to the concept of cause and effect. Students will engage in a brief ice-breaker, learn the definition of cause and effect, and observe as I model how to identify cause and effect in a fictional text. The students will have the chance to practice identifying cause and effect in fictional text. Students should be able to read a level 30 (3rd-grade text) independently. Students who can read at higher reading levels are encouraged to participate.
Learning Goals
The student will identify cause and effect relationships in fictional texts.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Students do not need a Reading A-Z, Google Jamboard, or Google Drive account to access class materials.
Supply List
Students will need a pencil and a piece of paper. I will use "No More Thirsty Crops" from Reading A-Z for the demonstration lesson. The text, "Kid Inventors" from Reading A-Z, will be read by the students and can be downloaded and printed at the following link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Q0uJxi0GMFsCuMmD4F-d2V8zzl8TPBc0/view?usp=sharing.

Hello! My name is Ms. Marni, and I am passionate about teaching children how to read. I have a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from James Madison University. I also have a master's degree from Shenandoah University in Education. Shortly after I completed my master's degree, I became a certified reading specialist.
I have 33 years of teaching experience. I taught 2nd and 3rd grade for 14 years for Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia before becoming a reading specialist/literacy coach for the district for 19 years. In addition, I designed professional development and curriculum at the school and district levels. My training opportunities include IMSE's Morphology and Orton-Gillingham training, Reading Recovery, Fundations, Just Words, and Read Well. I recently earned a graduate certificate in Education Policy from George Mason University.
I enjoy spending time with my husband and our cats, Penny and Cookie, when I am not teaching. We are huge Washington Nationals fans, and we've had season tickets since 2005. In addition, I am a self-described nerd who loves all things Marvel and Star Wars. Finally, of course, I love to read.
Every student deserves to know how words work. I also firmly believe that all students benefit from rigorous comprehension instruction. Reading is more complicated than just sounding words out. By targeting intervention to what children need, their reading will improve.
If you have students needing special accommodations, please let me know before class so I can plan accordingly. I look forward to teaching your child!
