F. PROCEDURE
To begin the lesson, we will review the book Sweet Clara and the freedom quilt. I will ask the
group to recall the events that happened in the story to get their brains thinking about the
topic. Then, I will ask them to pull out their vocabulary sheet and we will go over the six
words we looked at yesterday. After, I will assign each student a vocabulary word that they
will study and become the expert of knowing.
Each student will create an individual vocabulary chart on the word they are assigned. For the
word, they must find the definition, two synonyms, two antonyms, the part of speech, use it in
their own sentence, and draw a picture that represents the word. The students will be given 15
minutes to work on this task.
Once the students have finished, they will share their web with the group and teach their
classmates the word. While the other students are learning, they need to take notes on the
word in their vocabulary notebook to make sure they develop an understanding as well. After
each student shares, I will ask the group if they have any questions and we will clean up the
materials.
Finally, as an exit ticket, the students will have to write a few sentences on why these words
are important to the story. In the paragraph, they must emphasize what the main idea of the
story was.
G. DIFFERENTIATION
Because Andrew is unable to express himself by writing, I will work with him on his vocabulary
graphic organizer and exit paragraph. I will have him orally describe his predictions and definitions to
me and I will write it down for him.
H. WHAT COULD GO WRONG WITH THIS LESSON AND WHAT WILL YOU DO ABOUT IT?
The students may need more time to finish the graphic organizer. If this happens, we will extend part
of the lesson into tomorrows literacy block. If a member of the group is absent, I will create a
vocabulary web for that child.
