This is a 19 page workbook to accompany the story "Chinatown" by William Low. Skills covered include: author's purpose, context clues, comparing/contrasting, contractions, consonant clusters, digraphs, compound words, punctuation, quotation marks, summarizing, syllables, making inferences/drawing conclusions, multiple meaning words, fact/opinion, parts of speech, synonyms/antonyms, true/false, singular and plural nouns, homophones, verb tense, picture clues, vocabulary, pronouns, proper nouns, making connections, main idea, facts and supporting details, main idea and supporting details, subject/predicate, reference materials, analogies, sequencing, suffixes, sorting/classifying, correct word order, ABC order, spelling, grammar, vowel sounds, soft and hard c/g, sentence types, narrator, and cause and effect. This has been an invaluable tool in covering state standards and helping my students with comprehension and numerous language arts skills. The page numbers referenced in this workbook correspond to the story in the Houghton Mifflin Anthology "Adventures" from their California Reading program. If you are using another version of "Chinatown", this will still be useful to you, but you may have to modify a few things. If you like this product, check out my workbooks for other stories in the "Adventures" and "Delights" anthology books. **Previous buyers!!!
