V. A. INTRODUCTION
DO YOU KNOW WHAT AN IDIOM IS? CAN YOU REMEMBER THE DEFINITION FOR AN IDIOM? CAN
YOU GIVE ME AN EXAMPLE OF ONE? TODAY WE ARE GOING TO LISTEN TO SOMEONE READ TO US
AND AS THEY READ, WE ARE GOING TO LISTEN FOR IDIOMS. I WILL PAUSE THE STORY SO YOU
CAN TAKE TIME TO WRITE THEM DOWN. HAVE EITHER OF YOU HEARD OF AMELIA BEDELIA?
SHE’S GOING TO HELP US OUT TODAY AND HOPEFULLY SHE’LL MAKE MORE SENSE OF IDIOMS.
B. LESSON DEVELOPMENT (ACTIVITIES, PROCEDURES)
 PLAY READ ALOUD (HAVE STUDENTS TRY TO PICK OUT THE IDIOMS AND STOP TO WRITE
THEM DOWN, IF THEY MISS ONE, PAUSE AND GO BACK.)
O ONLY HAVE STUDENTS WRITE DOWN THE IDIOM AND WHAT AMELIA DID. FILL
IN WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE LATER.
 DISCUSS THE WHAT THE IDIOMS ARE ACTUALLY TELLING AMELIA TO DO. “WHAT WAS
THE FIRST IDIOM YOU WROTE DOWN? WHAT DID AMELIA DO? WHAT WAS SHE
ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO DO?
C. EVIDENCE OF DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION (CONTENT, PROCESS, PRODUCTS, OR LEARNING
ENVIRONMENT)
 PROCESS: MICAH WILL HAVE THE IDIOM ALREADY PREPARED AND WILL HAVE TO CHOOSE WHICH
ANSWER FITS BEST WITH THAT IDIOM
D. CLOSURE (SUMMARY)

GIVE ME ONE TOO? AND WHAT IS AN IDIOM?
