Differentiation I would have my higher ability learners add more details, for example they
would choose the time of year they want to go and add details like the
climate, weather. Also they could what they would take with them, for
example a winter coat, umbrella, or swimsuit. For my learners with
disabilities I would have them create their draft or orally tell me and I would
either have a higher student help them or have a parent come into help the
students create the comic strip. If I could not get help I would have the
student work with a partner so they were still experiencing the comic tool.
Closure
I would have the students share their comic strips to the class. Sharing will
allow the students to see all of their classmates projects and compare and
contrast their locations and activities they would do on the vacation.
Sharing their comic strip will allow the teacher to see if the student meet
the objectives by choosing a places, doing the research, and giving reasons
why they want to go to this location. Students then need to write a
reflection about how their vacation spot was similar or different than
another students and why. We could also make a classroom map of all the
vacation spots our class wants to go to.
