Step One: 

Teacher chooses a MY HERO story and reads the MY HERO story out loud, discussing it to assure comprehension. 

Step Two: 

Teacher chooses four words from a MY HERO story where three words have something in common, and the fourth is different (e.g., three words describe an object, one word describes an action, or three words are names and one word is not, etc.). 

Teacher writes these words on cards and scrambles them. 

Step Three: 

Students choose the card with the word that doesn't belong with the others, the word that is somehow different. They explain their choice.

Step Four: 

Teacher reinforces the correct choice with a complete explanation of why the word doesn't belong in the group. She puts the mismatched word aside.
