00:00.000 --> 00:18.000
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

00:18.000 --> 00:26.000
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

00:26.000 --> 00:44.000
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

00:44.000 --> 00:51.760
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I am sorry, I'm a

00:51.760 --> 00:56.080
together. Miss what? I'm doing the same thing with words that you're doing with

00:56.080 --> 01:03.940
your dolls. Doesn't look like it. Look. I have all these different sentences about

01:03.940 --> 01:09.600
badgers. Some about what they look like or about where they live and stuff like

01:09.600 --> 01:14.480
that. Except they're all jumbled together. I have to try and organize them into

01:14.480 --> 01:18.640
paragraphs and give a heading to each paragraph. What are you doing that for?

01:18.640 --> 01:23.020
It's for Mrs. Framish. She says it'll help us to understand the main ideas of

01:23.020 --> 01:31.300
what we're reading. Well my main idea is to find my dolls and and I think we're

01:31.300 --> 01:36.180
about to have another adventure. I think you're right.

01:37.860 --> 01:46.860
My children. Hey it's my mom's doll. Yours is it? I found it in tween

01:46.940 --> 01:54.300
words. The space between our two worlds. My children. You must hasten it once to

01:54.300 --> 02:00.140
the land of Mujust. That fiend for Zul is again hatching an evil plot to rule

02:00.140 --> 02:04.740
both our worlds. Hurry. Hurry.

02:06.020 --> 02:10.740
Well well let's go.

02:17.380 --> 02:25.620
Hurry my children. For Zul is at it again. Our planet is in grave danger.

02:25.620 --> 02:32.420
Hurry. There is no time. Hurry.

02:32.420 --> 02:44.420
You must listen to my sister.

03:02.420 --> 03:05.420
Hurry.

03:14.420 --> 03:19.420
I must hurry. I'm in grave danger. Hurry.

03:32.420 --> 03:50.580
What are we? I don't know but from looks of that picture I'd say for Zul's office

03:50.580 --> 03:56.980
would be a good guess. Excellent guess. Welcome to my humble headquarters. My

03:56.980 --> 04:04.980
most I'll bring it. I mean let's write what did you do to Lexor. The old fool. Holy

04:04.980 --> 04:12.300
good morning. Not so fast of my pretty. This doll is mine now and if you ever

04:12.300 --> 04:16.780
want to see it again and you don't want to end up like your friend there then

04:16.780 --> 04:22.660
you'd better look in that envelope before I get really nasty.

04:26.980 --> 04:36.820
Now what? Read them. They're always served for dinner. I like the

04:36.820 --> 04:43.340
better than Russell Spouts. Turnips are my favorite food. Sometimes I have a

04:43.340 --> 04:49.740
chocolate turnip Sunday for dessert too. This stuff doesn't make sense. Exactly

04:49.740 --> 04:55.700
and if you ever want to see Lexor or your doll again put them in order so they do

04:55.700 --> 05:16.460
make sense. You have five minutes. Stuff doesn't make sense. I know but I think

05:16.460 --> 05:24.500
it's just like a table and it's legs. Now you don't make sense. Remember I was

05:24.500 --> 05:27.600
telling you that I was putting words into groups like you were grouping your

05:27.600 --> 05:42.900
dogs. We've been spending a lot of time putting words into groups and you're

05:42.900 --> 05:48.900
all becoming very good at grouping. Let's use what you know about grouping to

05:48.900 --> 05:56.220
help you read and understand paragraphs better. A paragraph is about one main

05:56.220 --> 06:05.340
idea followed by supporting details. The details add to the main idea. To help you

06:05.340 --> 06:17.580
understand that better try to imagine that a paragraph is like a table. The

06:17.620 --> 06:29.100
legs are supporting details and the table top is the main idea. The details support

06:29.100 --> 06:37.100
the main idea just the way the legs support the table top. Now let's look at

06:37.100 --> 06:42.980
these four sentences on the board. We're going to put them in order so that we

06:42.980 --> 06:49.340
have one main idea followed by supporting details. As you read the

06:49.340 --> 06:54.340
sentences see if you can find one sentence that tells what the entire

06:54.340 --> 06:57.700
paragraph is about.

07:12.980 --> 07:36.580
Have you all finished reading? Okay. Did anyone find a sentence that tells what

07:36.580 --> 07:45.540
the entire paragraph is about? Jason? I think it's we have two goldfish. Alright

07:45.540 --> 07:55.300
let's put it in our main idea space and test it against the other sentences. Does

07:55.300 --> 08:03.220
this sentence say something about this sentence? Angie? Not really. It tells

08:03.220 --> 08:10.620
about two different things goldfish and turtles. Right so this can't be our main

08:10.620 --> 08:17.500
idea can it? Each sentence must say something about the main idea sentence.

08:17.500 --> 08:24.060
Does anyone else have an idea about a sentence that tells what the entire

08:24.060 --> 08:31.100
paragraph is about? Norbert? I think it's we have many pets in our classroom.

08:31.100 --> 08:43.900
Well let's put it at the top and test it shall we? Does this sentence say

08:43.900 --> 08:51.240
something about the sentence at the top? Mary? I think it does. The first

08:51.240 --> 08:55.980
sentence is that we have many pets in our classroom and the second one tells

08:56.060 --> 09:02.700
what one of those pets are goldfish. Good Mary. So this sentence is a supporting

09:02.700 --> 09:08.940
detail of this one. Let's look at the next sentence and see if it's a supporting

09:08.940 --> 09:16.620
detail. Is it? Jason? I think it is because it tells about another pet we

09:16.620 --> 09:23.300
have in our classroom. The turtle. Good Jason. So this is a supporting detail of

09:23.380 --> 09:30.180
our main idea isn't it? How about the third sentence? Is this a supporting

09:30.180 --> 09:36.940
detail of this sentence? Angie? Yes it is. It tells about some more pets that

09:36.940 --> 09:45.100
are in the classroom. Good Angie. So we all agree this is our main idea and these

09:45.100 --> 09:52.460
are the supporting details. Let's read our paragraph again and see if it makes

09:52.460 --> 09:57.100
more sense this time than it did the first time we read it. Angie will you

09:57.100 --> 10:02.980
read for us please? We have many pets in our classroom. We have two goldfish. We

10:02.980 --> 10:10.220
also have a spotted turtle. We have two gerbils as well. Thank you Angie. Now our

10:10.220 --> 10:15.700
paragraph makes more sense doesn't it? We can understand it better. It's almost

10:15.700 --> 10:22.300
time to leave but before we have to go who can tell me what kinds of sentences

10:22.300 --> 10:29.620
are there in paragraphs? Jason? There is a main idea sentence that's supporting

10:29.620 --> 10:35.620
detail sentences. The main idea tells what the paragraph is about and the

10:35.620 --> 10:43.260
supporting details tell about the main idea. Very good Jason and all of you. Now

10:43.260 --> 10:48.460
you know what to look for in a paragraph. I'm going to give you some homework to

10:48.460 --> 10:58.340
practice this. Take your reading books out. On page 98 there's a story. Many

10:58.340 --> 11:03.940
paragraphs I'd like you to look for the main idea of each paragraph. Then find

11:03.940 --> 11:13.380
the supporting detail sentences. We'll talk about that. So first we have to try

11:13.380 --> 11:17.340
and find the main idea sentence and then we can make this whole paragraph make

11:17.380 --> 11:28.260
sense. Let's try this one. They always serve for dinner. I like them better than

11:28.260 --> 11:32.700
Brussels sprouts. Well the second sentence tells us something about the

11:32.700 --> 11:42.580
first one but it doesn't say what they are. Let's try this one. Turn up some of my

11:42.620 --> 11:46.900
favorite food. I like them better than Brussels sprouts. It tells us something

11:46.900 --> 11:51.780
about them. They're always served for dinner. Sometimes I have a chocolate

11:51.780 --> 11:57.660
turn up Sunday for dessert too. They're all supporting detail. Let's tack them

11:57.660 --> 12:00.460
right to the map.

12:13.580 --> 12:21.700
Times up of my map. What have you done to my map? Read them in a week. Turnips are my

12:21.700 --> 12:28.140
favorite food. I like them better than Brussels sprouts. Why that's impossible.

12:28.140 --> 12:32.260
You've got it right. It was easy. We just figured out which sentence is the main idea

12:32.260 --> 12:36.740
and which one of the sporting details. Now don't forget your end of the

12:36.740 --> 12:51.300
bargain. You mean I have to give back Mosse? Oh don't forget Lexor. Oh he

12:51.300 --> 12:59.860
escaped into the tween world. Speaking of escaping. Bye.

13:06.740 --> 13:18.940
That's it. They've defeated me for the last time. It's no more Mr. Nice Guy.
