Description of Activities and Setting

What are the 6 questions we should be able to answer about a text after we
have read it to understand the key details in a text?
Today you are going to learn how to answer questions using examples from
the text to support your answer. When we are finished, youll be able to
answer questions during your independent reading time. Good readers find
the answers to questions during reading because it helps them understand the
text better.
Answering questions referring to the text means that you look at the text for
information that will help you find the answer. Good readers reference the
text in order to make sure their answers are correct.
When given a passage or poem and questions to answer, I start by looking at
the title. Often times the title can give you clues about what the story is about.
After I read the title, then I read the questions. I read the questions first
because it is important to know what I should be paying close attention to as I
read. I read the questions and the answer choices for all of the questions and
then I begin to read. As I am reading I think back to the questions I am trying
to answer. For example I am reading Bed In Summer by Robert Louis
Stevenson. I read the title first Bed in Summer. I would say this poem is
going to be about summer. Then I would go to my questions. My questions
are How does the speaker feel about going to bed in the summer? Why is it
hard for the boy to go to bed in the summer? What would the little boy
rather do? After reading those questions I would then begin to read the
poem. As I am reading I come across line 9 that talks about how it is hard to
go to bed in summer. I remember reading a question that asked how does the
speaker feel about going to bed in the summer? I would flip to the questions
to make sure I remembered correctly and then I would look at my answer
choices. I know that the author feels like it is hard to go to sleep in the
summer? How do I know that? I know that because in the poem in line 9 the
author asks if we think its hard too?

Lets look back at the poem. Who can tell me why it was hard for the boy to
go to bed in the summer? Where did you find that in the text? What line?
What would the little boy rather do? Where did you find that in the text?
What line?
Now I want you to read a copy of the poem Winter-time by Robert Louis
Stevenson that I will pass out to you. While you are reading be thinking about
what the author is talking about in the poem and the questions you read before
you began reading the poem. After you have read the poem I want you to
answer the questions by referencing the text for each one.
Mastery- Answering 6 out of 8 questions correctly and referencing the text for all 5
multiple choice questions.
Partial Mastery- Answering 3-5 questions correctly and referencing the text 3-4 times.
No Mastery- Answering 2 or less correctly and reference the text 2 or fewer times
What did we learn today about identifying the point of view from which a
story is told?
5/13 = 1 student
7/13 = 1 student
8/13 = 2 students
8. Assessment Results of
9/13 = 1 student
all objectives/skills:
10/13 = 4 students
11/13 = 1 student
12/13 = 8 students
13/13 = 6 students
Targeted Students Modifications/Accommodations:
Struggling students: Struggling students will be given
prompting questions to guide their thinking during the
reading and answering of questions.
Materials/Technology:
Student/Small Group Modifications/Accommodations:

For my student with ADHD I allowed him to sit on the aerobics
ball so that he could get some energy out to stay focused on the
poem and questions.
(Include any instructional materials (e.g., worksheets, assessments PowerPoint/SmartBoard slides, etc.) needed to implement the lesson at the end of the lesson plan.)
Doc camera

Reflection on lesson (if taught): Overall lesson went well. Next time I teach this lesson I would write on the poem I was
showing them where they found the answers. When they tell me where they found the answer in the text, write the
number of the question they answered.
