and thinking about while Im reading. After reading over the directions as a
class, read the story of Jackie Robinson out loud.
After this, come back out the outline reread the first couple of questions out
loud. Do I remember any of these questions off the top of my head? I know
his name! Thats easy. Hmm. Im not really sure if I remember. I think I
remember, I better go reference my text to find it, because we have to have
relevant and correct information. Sometimes you wont find all the answers in
your books, thats okay. You can find another book or use the computers when
we work on our biographies. I remember at the beginning it said how old he
was. Go to page 4 for questions the first 2 bullets under the body paragraph
section. My next two questions are childhood experiences and family history,
I dont think it really talk about him as a child or his family. Let me flip
through real quick. Nope. Moving on schooling? Hmm, it said something
about college. Let me go look at what it said about college. It said he played
football, baseball, and ran track (page 7). Lets try some more together!
Go through the book, page by page answering the questions on the biography
outline out lout as a class. Allowing students to share what they think the
answer would be based on the text from the book. This will allow room for
12
discussion. Students should refer directly to the text or roughly reference the
minutes
text for their thinking. The students have been working with biographies, they
may add more information to the conversation.
Students will begin working on their biography outlines based on their
historical figure independently. Put up a 10 minute timer, and see where
students are in their writing. Students will probably need the whole time to
15
work, it is okay if they do not finish. Students who happen to finish early with
minutes
the outline should continue working on their biography projects or read
independently.
Walk around with a checklist, checking for his birthdate, major accomplishments, and what
did s/he do to get famous, if students have all 3 them they have earned full mastery. This
will be collected through observation.
What are some strategies that I modeled that can help you read text with a lot
of information? Have students share some examples: reading the directions,
reading the questions before I read my book, putting in sticky notes when I
3 minutes
think I remember something from my outline because these were things to
look for, referencing the text, etc.
