This Inca Empire reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. 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. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question and additional facts. 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: Inca Empire Genre: Nonfiction (informational passage) Subject: Social Studies (History) / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Cusco, roads, quipu records, terraces, legacy Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): S What This Lesson Teaches Best How Cusco grew from a small kingdom into a larger Inca state in the 1400s under a leader named Pachacuti, and how the state was called Tawantinsuyu (the Realm of the Four Parts). How Inca engineers built a wide road system with stairs cut into rock and bridges, plus storehouses and resting places that helped the empire spread across western South America. How the Inca kept records without an English-like alphabet by using a quipu (cords with knots and colors for counts and notes). How terraces were used on hillsides to hold soil and water for crops like potatoes and corn, and how work was organized by the state as a kind of tax. How the empire ended after conflict and Spanish conquest, while people and culture continued (Quechua still spoken; terraces and stone places remain). Learning Goals Describe how Cusco changed in the 1400s and name the Inca state described in the passage. Explain how roads, bridges, and storehouses helped the Inca move messages, supplies, and armies. Explain what a quipu is and what it could record, based on the text. Describe what terraces are used for and how they helped farming on hillsides. Identify what happened in the 1500s that led to the end of the empire and one way Inca life continued afterward. Key Vocabulary From the Text Tawantinsuyu — the Inca state called the Realm of the Four Parts. chasquis — runners who carried messages from stop to stop. quipu — cords with knots and colors for records. terraces — flat steps that hold soil and water. storehouses — places along routes that kept needed supplies.

Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Volcanoes Genre: Nonfiction (Informational text) Subject: Science (Earth Science) Primary Topic: What volcanoes are, how they form, and safety clues Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): P What This Lesson Teaches Best What a volcano is (more than a “mountain”): Explains a volcano as an opening/vent or crack in Earth’s crust where hot melted rock, ash, and gases escape from an underground storage place called a magma chamber. Magma vs. lava: Defines melted rock as magma underground and lava once it reaches open air. How volcanic ash forms and spreads: Describes eruptions that toss bits of magma into the sky, cooling into tiny sharp pieces called volcanic ash that can fall like gritty snow and cover wide areas. Why volcanoes form where they do: Connects volcano locations to Earth’s outer layer being broken into huge moving plates (pulling apart or sliding under another), and also to “hot spots” that can form island chains such as Hawaii. Warning signs and community safety: Notes that rising magma can cause small earthquakes, ground swelling, or changes in gases and heat, and that these clues help communities decide when to close roads or move to safer places. Learning Goals Students will explain what the text says a volcano is and where the material comes from. Students will describe the difference between magma and lava using the passage’s definitions. Students will identify one way volcanic ash forms and describe what it is like when it falls. Students will describe how moving plates and hot spots help explain where volcanoes form. Students will list warning signs in the passage that may happen as magma rises. Students will explain how scientists’ observations can help communities stay safer. Key Vocabulary From the Text crust — Earth’s hard outer layer. magma — melted rock below Earth’s surface. lava — melted rock after it reaches open air. eruptions — times when a volcano sends material out. plates — huge moving pieces of Earth’s outer layer.

This walkie-talkies reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. 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. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question. 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: Walkie-Talkies Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Science & Technology (Informational Reading) Primary Topic: How walkie-talkies work, history, and clear communication Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): P What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains how a walkie-talkie works as a handheld two-way radio that switches from listening to sending when the talk button is pressed. Builds understanding of shared communication rules , including that only one radio can transmit at a time and messages stay “short and clear.” Introduces a simple history of portable radios , from early military use (including a “packset” and the Motorola SCR-300) to later helpers on job sites. Highlights how word choice matters when people share the air, connecting clear/kind words to teamwork and getting things done. Uses comparisons and descriptive language (e.g., “scratchy,” “like a distant whisper,” “lighter than a deck of cards”) to help readers picture sound and size. Learning Goals Students will describe what a walkie-talkie is and what it can do (send and receive messages). Students will explain what happens when the talk button is pressed and why the radio listens most of the time. Students will identify at least two ways early walkie-talkies differed from many walkie-talkies today. Students will describe why teams keep messages short and clear when using walkie-talkies. Students will use evidence from the text to explain what “over” means in walkie-talkie talk. Key Vocabulary From the Text antenna — the part that sticks up to help signals travel. channel — a shared path where people hear the same messages. portable — easy to carry from place to place. transmit — send a message through the air. rugged — strong and built to last.

Phonic Spelling Programme Level 1 Ages 7+
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Outlines, Worksheets & Printables, Flashcards, Workbooks
This is a Phonic spelling programme. Not only will it teach a child to spell, but also to write. Just add a good handwriting programme. The spelling programme can be used with all ages from 5 to 99, however, if used with a young learner I strongly advise using the programme to teach both reading and spelling at the same time. See the website for more information and resources to teach young children. The spelling programme can be used: with children who have learnt to read, but need a spelling/writing programme with children who have tried another phonic programme and not made much progress with reading and/or spelling/writing with a special needs child who needs a very structured approach to learning by home educators by parents wishing to help their child at home About the programme The programme is very flexible and can be made to fit the child, rather than the child to fit the programme. Being highly structured, each new lesson builds on the one before, constantly revising the previously taught material The spelling programme will take 41 weeks to teach. One new sound is taught each week. What is included? The teacher's manual with full lesson plans and helpful teaching tips A list of the keywords for each lesson with the phonic sound highlighted - for practice and revision 39 spelling worksheets The Reading Made Simple Phonic flashcards The Odd Word flashcards About the worksheets The worksheets use time-honoured exercises to help pupils to become familiar with the new sound and revise previously taught ones. They include such exercises as tracking the new sound in words, proofreading as well as comprehension questions. Children generally find them fun because they are so easy due to the way learning is structured throughout the programme. More information If you would like more information about the spelling programme, then please visit the Reading Made Simple website. The same programme and set of worksheets can also be used to help an older child read, one who has some phonic knowledge but needs the gaps filled in a systematic manner.
