Selection Summary
Many animals are in danger of extinction. Some animals are hunted.
Some lose their homes when people build houses where the animals
lived. Dirty air and water cause some animals to die. But people can
help animals. In some schools, students learn how to protect sea
turtle eggs. Other groups raise funds to adopt whales.

Animales en peligro
by Patricia Ann Lynch
Build Background
Help students use their knowledge about endangered and extinct animals. Build interest by
asking a question such as the following: ¿Por qué la gente se preocupa cuando un animal
está en peligro de desaparecer? ¿Qué animales en peligro de extinción conocen? Read the
title and author and talk about the cover illustration.
Introduce the Text
Guide students through the text, noting important ideas and nonfiction features. Help with
unfamiliar language and vocabulary so they can read the text successfully. Here are some
suggestions:
Page 2: Explain that many animals in the world are in danger.
Suggested language: Vayan a la página 2. Lean el título: “Animales en peligro”.
Cuando una especie desaparece por completo, nunca más vivirá en la Tierra. Es
decir, se extingue.
Page 3: Draw attention to the photographs and the labels and captions. ¿Qué
animales están en peligro ahora mismo? ¿Qué animales están extintos?
Page 5: Point out the highlighted word: abarca. ¿Qué creen que les pasa a los
animales cuando la gente abarca cada vez más territorio al construir sus casas en
áreas donde originalmente vivían solo animales?
Page 8: Esta sección se titula: “Adopta a una ballena”. La autora dice: La gente da
lo que puede para ayudar a costear el cuidado de los animales. ¿Por qué la gente
da dinero para ayudar a salvar a una ballena u otro animal en peligro de extinción?
¿Por qué creen que salvar animales es importante para tantas personas?
Ahora, vuelvan al comienzo para descubrir algunas cosas que puedes hacer para
ayudar a los animales en peligro de extinción.

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
• Some animals are already
extinct, and others are at risk of
extinction.
• It is bad for people and the Earth
when animals become extinct.
• Section headings help readers
understand how the information
is organized.
• Hunting, building, and pollution
harm animals.
• People are working to protect
animals.
• Working with animals, raising
money, and cleaning up trash are
ways to help.
• People should help endangered
animals.
• People should avoid polluting the
air and water.
• People should avoid hunting
endangered animals.
• Photographs give a lot of
information and draw the reader
in.
• Captions and labels help to
explain the photos.
• Children and adults can work
together to help animals.

Choices for Further Support
• Fluency Invite students to choose a passage from the text to read aloud. Encourage
students to read with good phrasing and expression, as if they were giving a television
report about the topic of endangered animals.
• 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 adding the ending -mente to
a word changes it into a word that tells “cómo” As examples, point out the word
desafortunadamente on page 4.

Writing about Reading
Vocabulary Practice
Have students complete the Vocabulario questions on Hoja reproducible 3.1.
Responding
Have students complete the vocabulary activities on page 11. Remind them to answer the
Word Teaser on p. 12. (Answer: cliente)
Reading Nonfiction
Nonfiction Features: Captions and Photos Remind students that nonfiction has many
special features to help readers find and understand important information. Captions and
photos are two of these features. Explain that captions can be short phrases or labels, as
on page 3, or complete sentences with more information, as on page 4. Captions tell what
a photo or diagram or map is about. Reading the captions in a nonfiction book is a good
way to preview the book before reading the main text.
Photos are another important source of information. They often give additional information
that is not in the text. Have students look at the photo on page 5. Ask what information
they can learn from the photo (los edificios y las ciudades abarcan áreas cada vez más
grandes) and from the caption (muchos animales pierden sus hogares porque los
humanos construyen ciudades). Then have students choose a photo from the book and
write two new captions for it, one short and one longer.
Writing Prompt: Thinking Beyond the Text
Have students write a response to the prompt on page 6.
Assessment Prompts
• Which words on page 8 help the reader know the meaning of costear?
• In paragraph 2 on page 8, find the word that gives a clue to the meaning of clientes.
• What word on page 5 means almost the same as ocupa?

¿Qué animales ves todos los días? ¿Ves ardillas? ¿Ves
pájaros? ¿Qué sentirías si esos animales desaparecieran para
siempre? ¿Los extrañarías?
Una gran cantidad de animales están en peligro. Podrían
desaparecer o nunca más vivir en la Tierra. Estos animales se
extinguirían.
Algunos animales ya se extinguieron. No obstante, todavía
hay tiempo para salvar a otros. La buena noticia es que puedes
ayudar a salvar a los animales que están en riesgo.

¿Por qué los animales están en peligro de extinción?
Desafortunadamente hay muchas razones. Y la mayoría de
estas razones tienen que ver con los seres humanos.
