SWBAT: Write a letter to a friend in the class
Procedures
Introduction
“Hello friends, today we will be learning how to write a letter to one of our
friends. We are going to be writing about different fall activities that you
guys like to do during Autumn.”
Closure/Summarizing Strategy
Ask- “What are some examples of Fall activities that you wrote in your
letter? Tell a neighbor and I will ask some new students to answer.
Assessment/Evaluation
The students get their letters checked by the teachers’ multiple times during
the writing process to ensure correctness. This proves that the students
could complete the assignment to the best of their ability.
Special Considerations
Early Finishers
I will tell any students that finishes early to draw their friend a picture to go along
with their Fall activity. This will keep them occupied and not disturbing other
students who are taking longer to finish their letter.
Remediation
I will try to give individual help to any student that can not grasp the concept as
quickly as others. I could give them some ideas for Fall activities or help with
their sentence structure. Then I will check their papers more often to make sure
they are on the right track.
Enrichment
If a student has extra time or wants to be challenged have them write another
letter to a different friend. If there is not enough time have them add sentences
using their weekly vocabulary words to help them practice. This will give them a
challenge while also staying on task.
Special Accommodations
If a student has a learning or physical disability, then I will try to change the
lesson accordingly. If they have trouble with writing, then maybe have them
draw pictures of the activities instead. If they can not spell some words and need
assistance help them find another word or show them how to write the word they
want. If they do not want to write to a friend in the class because of a social
qualm, then they can write to a teacher or friend in another class.
