Members of your Teaching Team: Darcie Malcom

Classroom Teacher’s Name: Mrs. Ellsworth

Date of Lesson: February 25th, 2010

 

Lesson Goal/s:

3. W.2.1 Students can capitalize geographical names, holidays, special events, titles of books and stories, and titles of people.

3. R.3.1 Students can identify and describe literary elements and devices in literature.

 

Reflection:

            The last lesson went fantastic. We worked on learning timelines and how they have a beginning, middle, and an end in it just like a story would. Everything went s well as we thought. The only thing that we would have changed is when they had made their own timeline that we would of done that with a step by step process so that everyone would have kept up.

 

Objective: Students will: Capitalize book titles

      Capitalize titles of people, e.g. Mr., Mrs., Dr.

                 Students will: Identify and describe characters, setting, problem, events and solution within one text

                        Students will:

Introduction:  (about 5 minutes) (Dakota)

Get attention:  Students will put together their own graphic organizer that will have characters, settings, and the basis of the story they would like to write about. We will give a couple examples of the organizers so they can choose one that they feel will work best for their story.

 

Relate to past knowledge/ experience:  We will talk about the last lesson we did using timelines and explain beginning, middle and end of a timeline and how it can be used in a story.

Share the objective in general terms:  Explain why graphic organizers help with building stories of their own.

 

Student Activity: (Darcie)

            Students will put together a graphic organizer to help them put together a story of their own. After the graphic organizer is made the students then will take the characters and settings, and etc. and put it all together into a short story. This is going to be a 5 step process. Only step one which is the graphic organizer, will be done in this lesson. Step one will take time to brainstorm ideas and come up with a graphic organizer. After step one is completed we then will move on to step two which is making an outline.  Students will then keep following all the steps throughout the next few lesson plans until the story is complete.

 

 

 

             The Five Step Process:

1.      Graphic Organizer

2.      Outline

3.      Rough Draft

4.      Edit/revise

5.      Publish

 

Closure: (about 5 minutes) (Brittany)

Review what the students have accomplished in the past half hour and will explain what is to come in the next part of the step we are going to complete.
