These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill.

Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Quick Snacks Genre: Nonfiction (informational passage) Subject: Health Science (Nutrition) / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Snacks between meals and steady energy Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): R What This Lesson Teaches Best The purpose of a quick snack: a small, simple food that steadies you between bigger meals (not a meal replacement). How “convenience” packaged snacks are designed (ready to eat, travel well, last longer on a shelf) and what they may include (sweeteners, preservatives, bold flavors). Basic food science for kids: foods carry nutrients, including carbohydrates, protein, and fats, and protein helps tissues grow and repair. How to think about “steadier energy” snack choices (examples in the passage include fruit with yogurt and whole grains with beans). Built-in skill practice with aligned support pages (pre-reading facts, questions, vocabulary, writing, and extension activities based on the passage). Learning Goals Students can explain how the passage defines a quick snack and how it differs from a meal. Students can describe how quick snacks changed from home foods to packaged convenience foods, using text details. Students can identify the three nutrient groups named and describe what protein does in the body. Students can explain what the passage means by “steadier energy” and name a snack example it gives. Students can use section headings to locate information and state the main idea of each section. Key Vocabulary From the Text preservatives — ingredients that help food last longer. nutrients — helpful parts of food your body uses. carbohydrates — a nutrient group that gives the body energy. protein — helps body tissues grow and repair. packaged — put in a package to be ready and easy.
