    Vocabulary must be taught in context for students to truly understand the words and build relationships with them, and then in turn use them in writing and speaking. Move away from lists of vocabulary words and looking up definitions, and teach students how to comprehend with this best practice pack!

    *****************************************************************************
    WHAT’S INCLUDED?

    In this Vivid Vocabulary pack, I have provided activities designed on researched best practices for use with popular mentor texts to help you maximize your teaching time. These are the same mentor texts used in UNIT 4 of SECOND GRADE mentor sentences, interactive activities, and Better Than Basal Reading and Writing Activities.

    -The Important Book by Margeret Wise Brown
    -Parts by Tedd Arnold
    -Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst
    -Corduroy by Don Freeman
    -Click, Clack, Moo Cows That Type by Doreen Cronin
    -A Chair For My Mother by Vera B. Williams
    -Stone Soup by Ann McGovern
    -Smelly Socks by Robert Munsch
    -Thunder Cake by Patricia Polacco
    -Don’t Let The Pigeon Stay Up Late! by Mo Willems

    ★ Activities are also provided as links to Google Slides for Digital Learning! ★

    Please look at the preview to see what is included! Every mentor text “set” of activities includes the “What Do You Think?” page for context application and the “Show What You Know” page to formatively assess students. The other activities vary based on the text and the vocabulary words.

    There are open-ended activities and ideas provided that can be used with any words, and I encourage you to incorporate past words in with the current words using these formats for frequent repetition.

    *****************************************************************************
    WHAT ELSE DO I NEED?

    There is a Mentor Sentence Unit with all of the same mentor texts featured in this pack. You can also get the Interactive Language Arts Notebook Companion for the mentor sentences!

    You’ll also love to use these mentor texts in reading and writing, too! Make sure to get BETTER THAN BASAL: Reading & Writing Units for 40 Popular Mentor Texts!

    *****************************************************************************
    DO YOU LOVE TO SAVE MONEY?

    If you want to get all of the sets now to save money, you can buy the BUNDLE FOR THE WHOLE YEAR!

    There is also now a BIG bundle with all Mentor Sentences, Modifications for Revising and Imitating, Language Arts Interactive Notebooks, Reading Activities, Writing Prompts, and the Vivid Vocabulary Companions for all 40 books! Check out the Biggest and BEST Yearlong Bundle for Second Grade!

    *****************************************************************************

    😍 For today's Mentor Text Monday, let's look at a book you should use this week to celebrate National Crayon Day on Friday! 🖍 The Crayon Man: The True Story of the Invention of Crayola Crayons by Natascha Biebow is a fabulous picture book to read when teaching text structure. 🔎 It is not only a fantastic example of a narrative biography, but contains the elusive problem/solution text structure! (This one is always hard to find good examples of in picture books.) Get a weeklong #mentortext unit to use with the book in my TPT store: www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/The-Crayon-Man-Mentor-Text-Unit-for-Grades-3-5-7391557Or in my website shop: www.ideasbyjivey.com/product/the-crayon-man-mentor-text-unit-for-grades-3-5/ ...

    🤩Just ONE reason that I never looked back once 🤩Just ONE reason that I never looked back once I started the mentor sentence routine in my classroom:

My students were having these super deep conversations and even DEBATES about grammar and language. I’d never heard students be able to explain the functions of words so well before, or analyzing craft like actual authors! 🤯

    😍Teachers LOVE using the paired texts I've writ 😍Teachers LOVE using the paired texts I've written! 

📖With original passages (differentiated for two reading levels) and multiple-choice & constructed response questions that require students to go back into the text for the answers (not basic-level comprehension), you are able to tackle rigorous reading standards while integrating social studies and science content into ELA to maximize much-needed time!

Plus, bonus!! Students actually enjoy the passages' topics (no yawns through lessons)! 🚫😴

    When do YOU teach grammar? 🤓 📓If you're usi When do YOU teach grammar? 🤓

📓If you're using the #mentorsentences routine, I suggest beginning your writing time with it! You want grammar and language to be directly connected to their writing.

This also helps get students into a writing frame of mind, and often gives them a purpose for writing that day! ✏️
