I love the ease of being able to search and easily access
lesson plan information for all grades. You chose the grade level and lesson
plan appropriate for your subject and all the information is laid out for you.
Each lesson plan has sections of information. You can chose ‘Preview’,
‘Standards’, ‘Resources and Preparation’, ‘Instructional Plan’, ‘Related
Resources’ and ‘Comments’. The lesson plans can be emailed and shared. One
thing that I love about the website is that each lesson plan lets you know
exactly how much time to estimate for each lesson. This will help in planning your
lessons throughout the day.
The first lesson I chose to review
is Teaching Point of View with Two Bad
Ants from www.readwritethink.org.
The purpose of this lesson is to provide the students with the opportunity to
use illustrations and text to develop an understanding of the point of view of
the characters.
The student objectives are to identify point of view in a story by examining the text and illustrations, thinking about how an ant “sees” the world, being able to demonstrate that they understand the point of view by finding specific examples or evidence, and being able to apply their knowledge and understanding of point of view by writing and illustrating a story from the perspective of the main character (in this case, an ant). The students’ information should be accurate, demonstrating an understanding of point of view and the information should come directly from the story.
This lesson would be appropriate for grades 3-5. When teaching different point of views to the students, this would be an appropriate lesson to use. There is a book to help guide the lesson and to help the students have a prop for visual and auditory stimulation. "Giant Children" by Brod Bagert is a book that can also be used to teach the point of view. This is a great way to get the students to interact and have a better understanding of points of view. The lesson can be found at this URL: http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/lesson-plans/teaching-point-view-with-789.html?tab=4#tabs

The second lesson that I chose to
review is Research Building Blocks:
Notes, Quotes, and Fact Fragments. The purpose of this lesson is for the
students to learn the importance of finding the words in sentences and
paragraphs that contain the facts they need, through a teacher modeled
activity. Students should then practice finding these fact fragments in small
groups using an online activity. The online activity will offer an animated
think-aloud demonstrating how to find important fact fragments in a
notification passage.
The student objectives are for using a variety of graphic organizers to connect important ideas in text to prior knowledge and other reading. Also, the students will be able to demonstrate an accurate understanding of information and differentiate between fact and opinion. This is an appropriate lesson to be taught to 3-5 grades.
I would use this lesson when teaching the students how to differentiate between relevant and irrelevant information. The online activity is a great way for the students to have a hands-on lesson. They are able to complete the activity and discuss it amongst themselves.
