Ask: How does this photograph demonstrate that wrestling steers is very diffi cult? Page 5: Tell students that cowboys tended to the cattle on sprawling ranches, and that one of their responsibilities was to brand cattle. Look at the art on this page. Ask: How does it help you better understand what branding is? Page 7: Point out the chapter heading on this page. Make sure students understand that roots, in this context, means origins or beginnings.. Pages 9 10: Draw attention to the inset features. Explain that each box acquaints readers with a different historical fi gure. Ask: How can you tell that these are early rodeo stars? Now turn back to the beginning of the selection to learn how rodeo began and how it has changed over time.

Remind students to use the Summarize Strategy periodically as they read. and to summarize Discuss and Revisit the Text Personal Response Invite students to share their personal responses to the text. Suggested language: What did you learn about rodeos that you didn t know previously? Do you think rodeo contestants are motivated by money, having fun, or both? Ways of Thinking As you discuss the text, help students understand these points: Thinking Within the Text Thinking Beyond the Text Thinking About the Text Rodeo is a sport that has been around for over 100 years. Modern rodeo contains elements of the original sport, with bronc riding and bull riding having evolved into the sport over time. The text s narrative is structured to provide readers a glimpse of modern rodeo, and then explores rodeo s roots. Modern sports have their roots in work and games from the past. Attending a modern rodeo can help people learn about what the American West was like in the 1800s Fountas, I.C. & Pinnell, G.S. Teaching for Comprehending and Fluency, Heinemann, Portsmouth, N.H. The author uses sidebars to profile key historical figures in rodeo. The author uses exclamation points, as with the title, to portray the excitement of rodeo to readers. Choices for Further Support Fluency Invite students to participate in a readers theater. Remind them to use a faster rate when reading the descriptions of the intense action involved in rodeo. Comprehension Based on your observations of the students reading and discussion, revisit parts of the text to clarify or extend comprehension. Remind students to go back to the text to support their ideas. Phonics/Word Work Provide practice as needed with words and word parts, using examples from the text. Remind students that learning common suffi xes found in words such as mostly, successful, and longest can help them discern the meaning of the new word, but that it should also be confi rmed by looking up the word in a dictionary. 3 Lesson 23:
4 Writing about Reading Have students complete the questions on BLM Responding Have students complete the activities at the back of the book, using their Reader s Notebook. Use the instruction below as needed to reinforce or extend understanding of the comprehension skill. Target Comprehension Skill Main Ideas and Details Remind students that they can infer main ideas based on supporting details contained in the text.

Modern rodeo is very popular for spectators. Put that in another detail oval. These details, combined with what is already in the chart, contribute to the main idea that rodeo was important in the 1800s and is still important today. Practice the Skill Have students share an example of another text in which identifying details helped them to determine the main idea. Writing Prompt: Thinking About the Text Have students write a response to the prompt on page 6. Remind them that when they think about the text, they reflect back on the text.

8 Student Date Lesson 23 BLACKLINE MASTER LEVEL R Running Record Form page Selection Text Errors Self-Corrections 7 How did the rodeo begin? Rodeos started in cowtowns. Cowtowns were lively places. When a big cattle drive ended, many cowboys stayed for a while in the cowtowns. After a successful cattle drive, cowboys often wanted to celebrate. They had friendly contests with each other. In these contests, each cowboy tried to prove that he was the bravest and best at his job. Cowboys bragged about their skills. They dared each other to perform dangerous tricks on horseback. These entertaining contests were the very first rodeos. 8 Historians are not sure exactly when the first official rodeo was held.
