Lesson Plan 1

Name: Terrance Hill
Teacher: Mr. Thole
Subject: Reading

Opening: Begin by finding out what the students interests are. Because this is our first meeting I
would like to learn a little about the background of the student. Also, figure out if there are any
topics he likes to read and any topics he does not like to read. I will show the student then where
the books he is interested in can be found in the library. I will also give him a reading attitude test to
see what he thinks about reading.

Lesson: Because this is our first day, I am going to read to him out of one of the books I have
provided or a book we select together in the school library. I am going to read a large passage of the
book to him and then I will have him read a small portion of the book for me. I am going to use this
to assess where his reading level is at and determine what level of books should be used for the
next time we meet.

Goals: Much of the activity in this meeting will focus on getting him to enjoy reading at some level. I
want him to be excited to read with me every week as opposed to dreading it.
