Objective: We will make inferences and provide textual evidence while
explaining how the structural elements of poetry relate to form.
Word Study:
*Prepare
two analogies to complete with the class (one example of a synonym analogy and
one example of an antonym analogy).
*Prepare four analogies for students to complete
independently (two synonym analogies and two antonym analogies).
1. Review the meaning of synonym and antonym.
Ask students to give examples of each.
2. Display two incomplete grade-appropriate analogies
for the class.
3. Ask: Which analogy represents a synonym
and which analogy represents an antonym? Students Think, Turn, Talk with
a partner.
4. As a class, complete the analogies by
discussing the relationships between the words.
Shared Reading:
*Select two grade appropriate poems with
similar ideas. Prepare to model making inferences with one of the poems.
* Prepare to display the Anchor Chart:
Structural Elements of Poetry from Unit 01, Lesson 01, Daily Lessons 4. This
Anchor Chart should list the structural elements of poetry (e.g., rhyme, meter
stanzas, line breaks) and poetry forms (e.g., lyrical, free verse, narrative,
humorous).
*Prepare to display a Venn diagram or other
graphic organizer to compare the two poems.
1. Ask: What do the words connect and
connection mean? How do readers make connections to text? Discuss
responses and remind students that readers make connections to
their personal lives, to other texts, and the world or community.
2. Tell students that in this unit they will
learn more about making connections to understand texts at deeper levels. They
will read a variety of literary texts and make connections across those texts.
3. Review with students how readers make
connections to infer. Remind students that readers connect clues in the text to
their prior knowledge to make an inference.
4. Display Anchor Chart: Structural Elements
of Poetry to review the structural elements of poetry.
5. I
DO---Display and read a short poem aloud. Think Aloud while reading
and explain how textual clues connect to prior knowledge. Describe an inference
that could be made by a reader.
6. Use the Anchor Chart: Structural Elements
of Poetry to analyze the elements and the poetry form.
7. Distribute the other selected short poem
that has a similar idea or theme as the poem used in the Mini Lesson.
8.WE
DO--- Read the poem aloud.
9. Discuss the ideas in the poem.
10. Use the Anchor Chart: Structural Elements
of Poetry to analyze the elements and the poetry form.
11. Ask: What inferences did you make? Discuss
responses including providing text evidence that connected to
prior knowledge.
Background Knowledge:
I DO---Students will examine a
variety of literary genre and apply processes to make inferences, summarize,
and provide textual evidence through reading. For this unit, teachers will need
to select texts from different literary genres (poetry, drama, fiction,
literary nonfiction) that have similar ideas or themes (for example:
friendship, family, love, trust, challenge, loneliness, etc.). The resources
selected will be used to help students learn to make textual connections.
Product: Using a double bubble thinking map, I will
compare and contrast structural and
literary elements between two poems.
