Lesson Outline
Today I read to Patrick from Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Then we discussed main idea and details. To have fun with the concept we played Headbandz. This allowed Patrick to see a main idea (secret card) and generate supporting details specific enough for me to determine the card (main idea). We took turns and had a lot of fun with it! Then Patrick chose his favorite secret card and generated a main idea sentence and 3 supporting details. His ideas were great, but he needs to work on translating his ideas in writing. We spent a lot of time actually writing the sentences he easily generated orally. Then Patrick read Level E Clouds. His reading was a bit labored today.

Lesson Comments
I am a bit concerned by the discrepancy between Patrick's reading and writing abilities. Based on his work today, I was surprised to see little to no application of reading strategies in his writing. He did not attempt to decode written words to spell like he does to read.
