Comp/Lit 9: 3/22/2011

To Kill a Mockingbird-Chapters 8-15

I was out today, so the sub plan is listed below.


Materials:

·      To Kill A Mockibird, Chapters 8-15 QUIZ & Answer Key
·      Teacher Copy of Reading Response Journal
·      Several pieces of butcher paper (on the floor in front of my desk)
·      Pens

Procedures:

1.     Take roll
2.     Pass out the TKAMB Chapters 8-15 QUIZ.  They can have as much time as needed to complete the quiz.
3.     When they finish, have them turn it in to you, and check their Reading Response Jounal.  Stamp each page that they complete (Title, quote, summary/analysis, journal/quickwrite) for chapters 8-15
4.     The students may/should read silently in their book while they wait for all students to complete the quiz.  They may read To Kill a Mockingbird, Night, or their Outside Reading book.
5.     Next, number the students off by 8 (in order to create eight groups-one per chapter).
6.     Each group will create a chapter poster. The poster will need to inlcude the chapter #, a title, 2 quotes with citation, a bullet point summary of events, characters introduced, and an image. They did this a week and a half ago and did a great job, so they should do very well with it for you.
7.     Give them about 30 minutes to complete the poster.
8.     Have each group present their poster to the class.  Students will be expected to add notes/information to their Reading Response Journal during the presentations.  Remind them that they should be taking notes not only on the chapter details, but they need to be adding information to the character pages as well.
9.     If there is time remaining, show the Oprah MLK, Jr. Video.  Start at the time indicated for each period.
10.   Homework:  Remind the students of the following:
·      Finish Reading TKAMB Chapters 16-23-DUE Friday April 1
·      Complete Reading Response Journal for TKAMB Chapters 16-23-DUE Friday April 1
·      Research More & Work on Essay Organizer, pages 28-29-DUE Thursday March 24
