Direct Instruction

We have been learning about natural disasters for our inquiry topic, which led to us reading and learning about Climate change.

Over two days, we read and annotated (highlighted, underlined, drew pictures, arrows, defined words, etc.) the text.

On the third day, we reread the text now that we had broken it down and developed our understanding more. We discussed and could make connections to other things we had learnt about which we were unable to do in the first read of the text.

The blog posts below were done on the fourth day, where students reviewed key vocabulary from the text and defined it in their own words.

Extended plan here.
