How

Lets
listen
to
what
the
poem
sounds
like
without
line
breaks.
Why
do
you
think
the
poet
chose
this
format?
What
makes
this
poem
fun
to
say?
Why
does
it
make
us
want
to
move?
Lets
examine
how
the
story
was
introduced.
How
did
we
meet
the
characters?
How/when
was
the
problem
set
up?
How/when

Elements
to
Teach
and
Discuss
in
Relation
to
Stories
o Title:
A
heading
that
gives
insight
into
the
content
of
the
story
o Plot:
The
series
of
events:
a
beginning
that
draws
in
the
reader
and
provides
information
about
the
characters
and
setting;
a
middle
that
develops
a
conflict;
a
high
point
in
action
when
the
conflict
is
about
to
be
solved;
and
an
ending
or
resolution
o Theme:
The
often
unstated
idea,
meaning,
or
message
that
ties
together
the
characters,
setting,

effort
involving
putting

to
replicate
the
original
structure.
After
viewing
a
dramatic
presentation
or
listening
to
a

read
aloud,
each
student
draws
one
part
of
the
story,
writes
one
rich
and
detailed
sentence
about
that
part,
and
determines
where
the
event
falls
best:
the
beginning,
middle,
or
end.
The
class
then
meets
in
three
groups
to
determine
an
order
for
each
piece
within
that
group.
The
class
then
stands
in
a
circle
around
the
room
and
reads
the
combined
pieces
in
sequence.
Adjustments
in
sequence
may
be
made
before
reading
the
piece
again,
and
students
may
add
helpful
terms
such
as
first

next
to
help
clarify
the
order
of
events.
Lead
the
class
to
discuss
whether
the

has
been
captured.
The
pieces
are
bound
together
into
a

book
and
kept
in
the

library.
o Comparative

o Let
students
know
that
they
will
be
considering
two
stories
and
deciding
which
ending
they
like
the
best.
Display
both
texts.
Students
choose
one
favorite
and
prepare
an
evaluation
by
drawing
the
ending,
describing
what
makes
it
good,
and
explaining
why
they
prefer
it
over
the
other
ending.
After
the
students
have
completed
their
reviews,
hold
a
whole-class
session
to
graph
the
two
choices
and
determine
which
ending
was
the
overall
favorite.

Literature:
During
this
unit,
students
will
learn
and
practice
the
idea
of
questioning
while
reading
literature.
Students
will
use
interrogative
sentences
and
who,
what,
where,
when,
why,
and
how
to
demonstrate
understanding
of
key
details
in
the
text.
They
will
also
use
questioning
to
develop
higher-order
thinking
questions
that
will
be
used
during
Socratic
discussion.
Questioning
will
support
students
identification
of
plot
elements
that
were
introduced
in
the

Students
will
have

poetry
on

basis
and
the
opportunity
to
review

skills
related
to
poetry.
Informational:
In
this
unit,
students
will
learn
to
use
questions
to
gather
information
from
informational
texts
and
to
demonstrate
understanding
of
key
details.
Questioning
will
deepen
students
interaction
with
nonfiction
texts
and
help
them
to
see
the
type
of
information
that
can
be
drawn
from
informational
books
and
sources.
In
addition,
students
will
begin
to
use
timelines
and
sequence
historical
events
in
order
to
begin
describing
the
connection
between
a
series
of
historical
events.
Through
the
study
of
Cycles

students
will
begin
to

on
characters
in
literature.
Students
will
gain
a

understanding
of
literature
by
examining
characters
at
a
deeper
level.
Students
will
describe
the

the
text
and

differences
in
points

to
become
