Lesson 6 Writing little red riding hood.mp4Direct Instruction
We are learning to understanding that story have a sequence and listen and write the descriptive words that make our stories interesting.
The focus of this lesson was understanding sequencing and learning new words through gifting. I wanted the children to be repeating the words and talking about what the ideas they were hearing.
Reflection
This lesson had it's ups and downs and I think that pace was probably the biggest challenge. The learners liked the context of fairy tales and enjoyed the twist in our dictation that saw the Grandma saving the day. I found that the ability to self pace the writing speed through dictation and have the teacher support built into the dictation allowed me to provide additional support to those who needed it most.
