Reading – Grade 2Unit of Study: Getting Meaning from Reading
Second Grading Period CURRICULUM OVERVIEWBig Idea Unit Rationale
The Goal of All Reading is Comprehension (Fountas and Pinnell, 1996, p. 53).
Pinnell, G.S., Scharer, P.L. (2003). Teaching for comprehension in reading: Grades K-3. Scholastic, New York, NY.
“People often think of reading and comprehending as two different (although connected) processes. We hear statements such as this: “Well, he can read it, but he doesn’t understand it.” I take the position that reading is comprehending; without understanding a person may be noticing and responding to graphic symbols but not processing them in a meaningful way that is required of readers.” (Fountas and Pinnell, 1996).
Fountas, I. C., Pinnell, G. S. (1996). Guided reading: Good first teaching for all children. Heinemann, Portsmouth, NH.
TEKS TEKS Specificity - Intended OutcomeTEKS Grade 2 The student is expected to 1A determine the purpose(s) for listening such as to get information, to
solve problems, and to enjoy and appreciate 1B respond appropriately and courteously to directions and questions 1C participate in rhymes, songs, conversations, and discussions 1E listen responsively to stories and other texts read aloud / contemporary 2B compare language and oral traditions (family stories) that reflect
customs, regions, and 3C ask and answer relevant questions and make contributions in small or
large group discussions 4C retell a spoken message by summarizing or clarifying 5A decode by using all letter-sound correspondences within a word 5B blend initial letter-sound with common vowel spelling patterns to read
words 5C recognize high frequency irregular words such as said, was, where, and
is 5E use structural cues to recognize words such as compound, base words,
and inflectional endings such as –s, -es, -ed, and -ing 5F use structural cues such as prefixes and suffixes to recognize words, for
example un- and -ly 5G use knowledge of word order and context to support word identification
and confirm word meaning 5H read both regular and irregular words automatically 6A read regularly in independent-level materials (text in which no more than
approximately 1 in 20 words is difficult for the reader) 6E read silently for increasing periods of time
I can: actively participate when stories are read to me (1A, 1B, 1C, 1E, 2B) read words by matching letters to sounds (5A) read high frequency words (5C) read text independently (5A, 5B, 5E, 5F, 5G, 5H, 6A, 6E) spell words correctly that have patterns I’ve studied (16B, 16C, 16D) retell stories using a graphic organizer (9I) understand the vocabulary in stories I’m reading (8A) summarize stories I read and those that are read to me (4C, 9H) make predictions based on what I already know and what the text says (9A, 9F) recognize that both people and animals can be characters in fiction (11H) understand characters by noticing what they say and do (11H) keep a reading notebook that includes:
o responses to what I’ve read (10A, 10C)o examples of student comprehension activities

CURRICULUM GUIDEEssential Questions Essential Pre-requisite Skills
Unit of Study: Establishing Routines Why is it important to have classroom routines? How does it help to make personal connections to
what I’m reading? Why is it important to make and adjust predictions
while reading? What is characterization? How does understanding cause and effect help
me understand what I read? What does it mean to be an active reader? How does it help to preview and predict? Why should I set a purpose for my reading? How can I monitor my reading? How can rereading for text evidence help me? What is visualization? What is so important about retelling what I read?
