Common Sufxes
INTRODUCE Write suffix, happiness, and sadness. Say the words aloud and have students repeat. Remind students that a suffix is a word part that is added to the end of a base word. Point out that happiness and sadness have the same suffix, -ness. Many words end in the suffix -ness. Other common suffixes are -ful, as in helpful or joyful, and -less, as in restless and sleepless. Point out that the suffix -ness turns an adjective into a noun, and that the suffix -ful turns a noun into an adjective. Suffixes can change the form of a base word, like changing the y in happy to i in happiness. PRACTICE Have students use Context Cards, the chant, the Selection Master, or Children of the Midnight Sun to look for and name words with common suffixes. (wonderful; beautiful; dampness; softness)

Longer Sentences
TEACH/MODEL Write simple sentence, compound sentence, and complex sentence. You have learned that simple sentences can be joined by conjunctions such as although, but, or and to make compound or complex sentences. Display the sentences Josh hunts. Selina fishes. Then write Josh hunts, and Selina fishes. Write People can buy their food. People still hunt and fish. Although they can buy their food, people still hunt and fish. Read the sentences aloud and identify each. (simple; simple; compound; simple; simple; complex) A compound-complex sentence is even longer. It joins a compound sentence to a complex sentence. Write Although they can buy their food at the store, Josh hunts, and Selina fishes. GUIDED PRACTICE Remind students that and is a coordinating conjunction, which connects two simple sentences to make a compound sentence. Remind them that although is a subordinating conjunction, which connects two simple sentences to make a complex sentence. Write Haidas have their own language. Tlingits have their own language. What kind of sentences are these? (simple) How can we make a compound sentence? (connect them with and) Write They all speak English. How can we make a longer sentence using this sentence and the previous ones?

Adverbial Clauses Languages such as Cantonese and Vietnamese use a balancing word in the main clause. Native speakers of these languages may include a superfluous connecting word when creating complex English sentences, such as Even though I am not big, but I can run fast. Provide extra practice identifying and eliminating extra connecting words from complex sentences.
REVIEW TOGETHER
Provide additional practice with Context Cards. Have partners read sections of Native American Poetry and Loans for the Poor to each other. Write out sentences. Have partners identify each sentence as simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex, and circle the conjunctions in each sentence, when appropriate.
Low Intermediate
Help students identify and label sentences as simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex. Have them circle the conjunctions used to join sentences and clauses.
High Intermediate
Have partners write examples of simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences. Have them circle the conjunctions they use.

Compare Texts
ORGANIZE CONCEPTS Use the model below to help students complete a chart comparing communities. Have students refer to their Leveled Reader and Student Book for specific text evidence.
RI.6.1, SL.6.1c
SHARE OBJECTIVES
Discuss and compare communities. CONTENT Make a chart to compare and contrast communities. CONTENT Build academic sentence structures. LANGUAGE Use domain-specific words to write an argument. LANGUAGE
Native American Poetry the Makah Nation, the Rumsien Ohlone, the Maidu Washington state and California
Loans for the Poor families in various poor villages Bangladesh, Haiti, Mexico, India, and other countries support individuals as they run businesses and pay back microloans
Communities

What Communities Do
Have students orally form sentences based on the information in the chart. Provide sentence frames such as the following: 1. The Haidas and the Tlingits hunt and sh in lush Alaska. 2. The Rumsien Ohlone people retain their basketweaving traditions. 3. The communities in Loans for the Poor help each other pay back loans. BUILD ACADEMIC SENTENCE STRUCTURES To help students compare and contrast communities, ask questions such as Where do the communities in Native American Poetry live? What about those in Loans for the Poor? Provide sentence frames such as: 4. Both Children of the Midnight Sun and Native American Poetry are about communities, much of whose heritage has not altered. 5. The communities in Native American Poetry live in the United States, but the communities in Loans for the Poor live in countries such as Bangladesh, Haiti, Mexico, and India. 6. In all three selections, community members believe in the same important concepts.

Do students correctly identify similarities and differences between texts? use a combination of different kinds of sentences in their writing?
Argument Writing
TEACH/MODEL Review the features of an argument. An argument is made up of sentences and paragraphs that tell the authors opinion, or what he or she thinks about something. Some arguments respond to, or give opinions about, books. Read and discuss the Writing Traits Checklist on Student Book p. 302. Read and discuss the Writing Model on Student Book pp. 302303. Point out examples of sentence fluency. GUIDED PRACTICE Explain that the class will work together to write an argument. W.6.1a, W.6.1b, W.6.1c, W.6.4, W.6.5, SL.6.1c, L.6.3a Explain that the essay will be a response to Children of the Midnight Sun. Write Does Children of the Midnight Sun do a good job of showing Haida and Tlingit life? Have students read the question aloud chorally. Explain that this will be the question that the opinions in the essay will try to answer. How should we begin the Domain-Specic Vocabulary essay? (by summarizing Traditions what the book is about) ceremony, generation, indigenous, traditional, What else should the tribal essay include? (sentences that give opinions on how well the book shows Haida and Tlingit life; evidence supporting the arguments) Have students suggest sentences that give opinions about the question and include evidence from the selection and domain-specific words. RI.6.1 Read the completed response aloud chorally. Discuss the essay. Have students suggest changes to increase sentence fluency. (Sample answer: Change two simple sentences to one compound sentence.) Scaffolded Practice and Application Beginning Provide the
frame I think Children of the Midnight Sun is a _______ book. Help students read and complete the frame with a word that tells their argument.
REVIEW TOGETHER
Have students work in pairs or small groups to read and review the rows and columns of the communities comparison chart. Have partners help each other check for and include domain-specific words in their writing. Have students review the Writing Rubric and use it to improve their writing.
Low Intermediate
Help students brainstorm one change to the essay that will give stronger text evidence for their argument. Help them write their revised sentence.
High Intermediate
Have students add several sentences to the essay, making sure to include text evidence. Have partners exchange papers and read each others writing.
