The standards establish guidelines for English Language Arts (ELA) as well as for literacy in social studies, and science. Because students must learn to read, write, speak, listen, and use language effectively in a variety of content areas, the standards promote the literacy skills and concepts required for college and career readiness in multiple disciplines. The skills and knowledge captured in the ELA/literacy standards are designed to prepare students for life outside the classroom. They include critical-thinking skills and the ability to closely and attentively read texts in a way that will help them understand and enjoy complex works of literature. Students will learn to use cogent reasoning and evidence collection skills that are essential for success in college, career, and life.?Essential QuestionsEnduring UnderstandingWhat are informative and explanatory texts? How does a writer compose an informative/explanatory piece? Why are details important in my response? How can I use the questions and suggestions from others to strengthen my writing?How does a writer determine the digital tools necessary to communicate their message? Why is it important to collaborate with peers when writing?What resources can help you find an answer to a question? How can resources lead you to an answer?How does phonemic awareness support students in their ability to read and write? How does the ability to segment words support students in writing?What are key details? How do readers use them to ask and answer questions from a text?How do key details provide further information about characters, settings, and major events to aid in comprehension?How does word choice enhance a story or poem and help the reader connect to the writing?Informational/explanatory text allows a writer to select appropriate facts about a topic in order to convey ideas and content. Details help writers make their ideas clear for the reader. A writer must determine how to revise their paper based on peer and teacher suggestions to strengthen their final product.A writer uses peers and digital tools to enhance their work. A writer determines the digital tools according to the task, audience, or purpose (e.g., slide show, blog, text, audio track, etc.).Source is the location of information. Writers use and cite multiple sources to write convincingly.The ability to orally blend sounds together leads to blending sounds into words when reading. The ability to orally isolate sounds in words leads to writing sounds in sequence to make words.Proficient readers use evidence from literary text, including key details, to support their understanding of the text and increase their ability to answer questions.Key details in a story, about character, setting, and major events, help readers to better comprehend the text.An author's word choice can create a piece of writing that appeals to the senses. The writing may evoke feelings and help the reader connect to the writing.Unit 2:Topic: CCSS:Goals: Informative Text WritingJourneys TE Unit 2W 1.2Write informative texts in which they name a topic, supply some facts about the topic, and provide some sense of closure.W 1.5With guidance and support from adults, focus on a topic, respond to questions and suggestions from peers, and add details to strengthen writing as needed.W 1.6With guidance and support from adults, use a variety of digital tools to produce and publish writing, including in collaboration with peers.W 1.8With guidance and support, recall experiences or gather information from provided sources to answer questions.SL 1.5Add drawings or other visual displays to descriptions when appropriate to clarify ideas, thoughts, and feelings.L 1.2Capitalize dates and names of people.Use end punctuation for sentences.d.

A narrative conveys events in a logical sequence, real or imagined.Interdisciplinary Connections: Social Studies, FamiliesEquipment Needed: Dry erase boards, markers, leveled readersGoals and Objectives: After the teacher models how to write a narrative during message time plus, I will write a narrative that has a beginning, middle and end.Learning Activities or Instructional Strategies: Mini-Lesson: The teacher will write a narrative that will include a beginning, middle and end during message time plus. Students will listen as the teacher does a think aloud to model how to think of a small moment and say aloud what will happen in the beginning, middle and end. Then the teacher will write the story on the board in front of the children while the children read as she writes.Guided Practice: Students will turn and talk to their partner to discuss a small moment that they would like to stretch throughout 3 pages. Students will discuss what happens in the beginning, middle and end of their small moment.Independent Practice: Students will grab their narrative writing folders and paper and begin writing the story they told their partners. Students will quickly sketch out their ideas and then begin writing their narratives. Conference: Teacher will meet with Josh, Kaitlyn, Bobby and Abdul. Teacher will meet with students and prompt students to get started on their narrative and to make sure that they quickly sketched their story so that they can focus on the writing. Share: Two students that attempt to write a beginning, middle and end to their narrative will share their thinking and strategiesDifferentiation: Josh and Kaitlyn will sketch his ideas across 3 pages and practice stretching out his words as he writes his sentences.Bobby and Abdul will say and touch each page before writing the beginning, middle and end of their narrative.Resources Provided: Lucy Calkins Units of StudyAssessments: Narrative Scoring Rubric and Student ChecklistHomework: In a writing notebook, students will write a new narrative piece and use the student checklist to edit their work. ................
