Where does this lesson fit in the series of lessons in your unit?
Near the beginning of the unit. This will be the second lesson of the unit.
What concepts do students need before this lesson?
Students need to know camouflage and expository text because the genre they deal with
in this lesson is fantasy.
What are next steps? How does this lesson prepare students for whats next?

This prepares students to know there are other genres than expository text. They also
learn how to write complete sentences which they will use every day for the rest of their
lives.
Reflection:
What do you expect to happen in the lesson, why?
I expect students might have a hard time grasping the two things in a sentence the
naming part and action part. At this age, they tend to think a sentence is one word so
trying to get them to see a sentence is more than word might be difficult.
Purpose of the Lesson:
To teach students a clear understanding of what sentences contain.
