Sequence in Chronological Order

The morning time in 4th grade sure is busy! When I first get to school, I have to unpack my backpack and turn in my homework folder. I might have to sharpen my pencils after that. I usually have to complete the Morning Work, before I can do anything else. Finally, we can begin our lesson in ELA.

Biking Through the Years

In 1817, a contraption called a bicycle was invented in Germany. Soon, bikes were on a roll. Inventors started coming up with different versions. In 1870, the first high-wheelers appeared. You've probably seen pictures of these funny looking bikes with a huge front wheel and a tiny wheel in back. In 1878, the first bikes were made in America. Over the years, bikes have continued to evolve. In 1978, for example, the first mountain bike was created. What kind of bike do you think will be created next?

Would you like to write fiction? First, brainstorm until you come up with a really great story idea. Then write a first draft. This draft might be kind of messy, but it’s good to get the basic story down in writing. Next, edit your draft. The revision stage is the chance to make important changes. Maybe you want to change a character, or perhaps you’ve thought of a great new twist for the ending. Keep revising your piece of fiction until it’s polished. Last, but not least, proofread your work to make sure the grammar and spelling are perfect. Voila! Now you have a story. Don’t forget to share your story with friends and classmates. Which of the underlined words is NOT a signal word or phrase that shows a process in this paragraph?

Here's how to make a delicious fruit smoothie. First, put some ice in a blender. Then add some plain yogurt. You can also add a little honey if you want a sweeter smoothie. Next, put a banana in the blender. After that comes the real fun. You get to decide what other fruits go in your smoothie: strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, mango, or kiwi. There are so many choices of fruit! You can even mix a bunch of different fruits if you like. Now, run the blender until everything is well mixed and frothy. Great! You're almost finished, but there's one last, important step: Drink your delicious smoothie.
