Lesson Objective(s)/Performance Outcomes

Today we will create the setting for our fantasy story by using the pink setting
outline paper.

Assessment (Description/Criteria)

Individually going through each student's work by walking around and make
sure that they are filling out the outline. The students should answer each part
using their own creative thinking. Once completed and work time is over take
up their work and check their papers for completion.

Materials and Resources

Anchor Chart that displays setting
 Pink outline paper
Pencil/ pen
Document camera

Management of the Instructional Environment

We will go over classroom expectations while reading the mentor text by

respecting the teacher when speaking and while working by reviewing
CHAMPS. If needed I will use Callbacks to redirect their attention back on
task or back on me.

When sharing their work with the class, students will show respect to the
student sharing. After they will use glows to praise them on their hard work.

Technology Integration
Document camera to share their beginning of their stories of setting.

Diversity and Equity (Accommodations, Modifications, Adaptations)

low - students will have the time to brainstorm their thoughts before writing
also students will have the outline read to them. Allow the students refer back
to the anchor chart to assist their thinking during filling out the outline about
setting.

high - double check their work by re-reading the outline and check for
misspellings and grammar. Elaborate if needed.

Activities/Procedures

we talked about yesterday- fantasy. Explain that today we are going to start
brainstorming ideas because we are going to writing our own fantasy stories.
Today we will be creating the setting of our stories. In fantasies- the setting
can be
-A made up place

share with the class. Have all students come back to the carpet to listen to
their peers share. Each student will receive 2 glows from their classmates.
