Chlorophyll, the pigment that makes leaves green, is found in the chloroplasts. It is responsible for trapping light energy from the sun. Often chloroplasts are arranged perpendicular to incoming sun rays so they can absorb maximum sunlight.
This expository text uses many different vocabulary strategies. I loved how the vocabulary is bolded in each section. This signals unfamiliar words to students. One strategy that students could use to further their comprehension of their new vocabulary words is through technology. After reading the text, students could look at videos that explain the meaning of each word in ways that they can see. Real world learning! Chlorophyll would be a good word to research further because it is a hard concept to visualize in your head. It would make more of an impact on students if they were able to see it.
