Fun and learning- what could be better? Students will practice reading and text dependent inferential comprehension skills using chapter one of the novel Nervous Nolan’s Magical Meeting. Your students must refer to the extract to give textual evidence of their reasoning. Answers are supplied, of course!
Storyline
Nail nibbling Nolan is regarded as a lucky boy by everyone. There is only one thing he lacks- confidence. Nervous Nolan faces a series of challenges in the book and the first is revealed in this extract: he has to give his first public speech.
How to use this resource
This ready-to-use extract can be used as a whole class activity, for early finishers, or for homework. This freebie is the first chapter of a 10,000 word novel with 100 comprehension questions, Nervous Nolan’s Magical Meeting. In addition to short answer questions, the novel has multiple choice questions, true and false questions, mix and match, and sequencing questions. Wilbert the wizard teaches Nolan a type of magic that is more effective than any wand’s magic. Best of all, Nolan can access this magic himself, at any time. He learns that the greatest magic is not in the words of a wizard’s confidence spell, but the words we say to ourselves.

Standards based for grade 4
The freebie and the novel it comes from are both linked to the literature learning standards. Both are within the Lexile level band of 770-980 and thus is perfectly designed for grade 4. It would also suit many grade 3 students, and most grade 5’s. The book is deliberately crafted as high interest for these grade groups. For more Brilliantly Lit resource fun try

This is a FREE two weeks of my Grammar Skill of the Week resource.

Get the entire resource HERE!

———————————————————————————-

Use this resource to help your students review and practice a new grammar skill each week. It offers quick daily practice that you can implement as part of your morning routine, reading block, or any other transition time throughout the day when you have a few extra minutes.

Grammar Skill of the Week includes 62 weeks of content that you can use for the entire year. You can cover topics in order, or you can pick and choose topics based on your students’ prior knowledge and areas of need. Each grammar skill includes the following:

Day 1: Learn

Day 2: Practice

Day 3: Practice

Day 4: Writing Prompt

Day 5: Show What You Know

Organization of This Resource:

This resource will help you target a specific grammar skill in the most timely and effective way possible. Each week is set up exactly the same to promote a strong and predictable routine that works best for students.

Day 1: Learn

Students rate their level of understanding before starting the skill:

4 = I can do this on my own, explain how to to do it, and teach others.

3 = I can do it without help and show I understand.

2 = I can do it with help or examples in front of me, but I may make mistakes.

1 = I’m starting to get it but still confused.

0 = Even with help, I don’t understand or can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.

After students rate their understanding, they start the first day with lesson notes and examples that teach the grammar skill. These lesson notes are all written in student-friendly language to encourage students to work independently. After reading through the lesson and examples, students will complete practice questions to reinforce the skill they just learned. You can allow students to work on this section independently or do it together as a class.

Day 2 & 3: Practice

On the second and third day, students practice the skill with a variety of engaging questions, activities, games, riddles, and more. Based on students’ level of understanding, you can allow them to work independently or together as a class.

Day 4: Write

The ultimate goal of grammar instruction is to get students to naturally incorporate the skill in their speech and writing.On this day, students will do just that. They will respond to a writing prompt that requires them to transfer their knowledge of the skill they’ve learned and practiced.

Day 5: Show What You Know

Assess students on the grammar skill of the week. The assessment includes questions of varying difficulty so that you can get an accurate picture of student understanding. Finally, have students rate their level of understanding after completing the assessment.
