| Lesson Plans:
Monsters Are Make-Believe
After reading Where the Wild Things
Are and discussing monsters as make-believe creatures, the students
will create their own monster vests and dance to the tune, "Monster Mash."
"Poultry in Motion" (The Little Red Hen Meets
Chicken Little)
This is a six lesson unit that allows students to use their reading and
writing skills within each story. Students will distinguish between
reality and fantasy in lesson five.
From Once Upon a Time to Happily Ever
After...and Everything in Between
In this ten lesson unit students will compare fairy tales to other stories
and distinguish fantasy from realistic text. This unit will be an
exciting approach to classic fairy tales! We will weave language arts
skills with math, geography, and technology to create an integrated unit
with quality assessments with each wave of our magic wand. The unit will
begin with a lively lesson to activate prior knowledge and assess what
students have already discovered about these famous stories on their
own. Each lesson will include a meaningful assessment. To monitor the
students’ progress we will create murals and complete a technology
project during the unit. The unit will conclude with a culminating fairy
tale ball that will be fun for all!
