1 Character Education Novel Unit Out of My Mind, Sharon M. Draper
2 Day 1: Bellringer Assemble your learning journal
3 Essential Questions What can we do to be more accepting of differences? How can we show others respect? What is the impact of bullying on the victim?
4 Day 1: Chapters 1-2 Learning Targets Write your learning targets on the LEFT side of your learning journal. I can use active reader strategies to gain meaning from the text. (predicting, questioning, clarifying, connecting, commenting, inferring, etc.). I can determine the point of view of a text. Are there any words that you do not understand in the learning targets?
5 Inside your Learning Journal, assess yourself on each of these learning targets. Here is an example
6 Day 1: Say Something Strategy Read as much as your hand will cover, then Say Something (see below) about what you just read before moving on. Make a prediction Ask a question Clarify your thoughts Make a comment Make a connection If you can do one of these things about what you read, then keep reading. If not, then re-read.
7 Day 1: Chapters 1-2 Listen as I read Chapter 1 aloud to you. Purpose for Reading: Through which character s point of view is the story told? What is so different about the narrator of this story? Your Job: Think about the purpose question. Try to identify when I use the Say Something Strategy. Make a note in your Learning Journal when you hear me do one of these things.
8 Day 1: Chapters 1-2 Read Chapter 2 with a partner* or independently Practice using the Say Something strategy as you read. Purpose Questions What is the power of words?
9 Learning Target(s) Revisited Look back at your daily learning target(s) that you recorded at the beginning of class today. Code the targets based on your ability to master that target. Check= I got it! Star= I m getting there. Circle= I need help with this one.
10 Day 1: Homework Read Chapters 3-4 Purpose for Reading: What is really going on inside Melody s mind?
11 Day 2: Bellringer Learning Targets Write your learning targets on the LEFT side of your learning journal. I can determine the theme (author s message) in a paragraph, chapter, and novel. Quick Write Choose one of these prompts and write 5 sentences to support your answer. 1)Is Melody smart? List 3 examples to support your answer. I can use evidence from the text to support my answer. I can write to reflect on and explain my thinking. Are there any words that you do not understand in the learning targets? 2) Page 8, Melody says : Thoughts need words. Words need a voice. What does she mean? Do you agree? 3) When Melody talks about tornado explosions, she seems really angry and frustrated. Why? Would you feel like Melody if you were in her place?
12 Day 2: Chapters 3-4 Since Melody is the narrator, what does that allow the reader to know? We do not know how the other characters feel or what they are thinking. What information does the author give the reader to help the reader figure out how the other characters feel or think? Speech Body language Actions
13 Day 2: Pages If you could create a collage of images that represent what Melody is thinking, what would that look like inside her mind?
14 Day 2: Chapters 3-4 What is really going on inside Melody s mind? Write an ACES paragraph to explain your answer. Example: What does Melody mean when she explains the tornado? A= Melody means that her emotions and behaviors are becoming wild and out of control. C= When she feels the tornado approaching, she says that she ends up screaming, kicking, and throwing a tantrum. E= These behaviors are times when she is so angry that she loses control. S= Therefore, it is evident that she means that her emotions and behaviors are extreme like the a tornado.
15 Day 2: Pages Think-Pair-Share Share ACES paragraph with a partner What is the author trying to tell the reader so far? Exit Ticket (sticky note) What has shocked you the most about the events of the first few chapters?
16 Learning Target(s) Revisited Look back at your daily learning target(s) that you recorded at the beginning of class today. Code the targets based on your ability to master that target. Check= I got it! Star= I m getting there. Circle= I need help with this one.
17 Day 2: Homework Read Chapters 5-7 (Don t forget to use the Say Something Strategy!) Purpose for Reading: How do other characters treat Melody? What can you determine is their opinion of her based on their actions/words?
18 Day 3: Bellringer Learning Targets Quick Write Write your learning targets on the LEFT side of your learning journal. I can determine the theme (author s message) in a paragraph, chapter, and novel. I can analyze how the author develops the theme through characters. I can write to reflect and explain my thinking. Are there any words that you do not understand in the learning targets? Choose one of these prompts and write 5 sentences to support your answer. Explain what Melody means on page 36 when she says, it s awful to start out OK, then lose the ability to do stuff. Do you agree? Explain how Mrs. V treats Melody differently than her parents.
19 Day 3: Chapters 5-7 Chalk Talk Walk around to the posters and respond to the questions. No talking just writing. You can do one of the following: Answer the question Agree with someone else s answer (explain why) Agree with someone else s answer (explain why) Ask a clarifying question Extend someone else s answer to provide more details or further thought Venn Diagram Compare and contrast one of these pairs: Mrs. Tracy and Mrs. Billops Parents and Mrs. Valencia
