This activity

move to the
next class; if
there is
enough time
to introduce
the mindmap, Ss may
do it for
homework,
but because
the activity

I think it is
best done in

homework; in this case, the drafts will include the scene setting use of the past continuous. If the
moving of this activity leads to a little dead time we can begin making a mind map together on the
board, Ss may share stories with the class or Ss may begin the homework worksheet.
5. Some of the instructions for the activities are complicated. In particular, the mind map with numbers
allowing students to brainstorm on paper where they have more space may be confusing. I will
show the students samples on the website and monitor carefully to ensure that students are not
confused by the instructions. If the activity proves too confusing, I will replace it with free writing
to generate ideas. We have been free writing all semester and this will be easy for students to
understand.
6. Students may try to include everything from the mind map in their narratives and feel overwhelmed,
and the narratives may lack unity. I will model crossing out ideas and show a picture on the website
to encourage students to include only the best ideas in their paragraphs, and to be sure that all the
ideas logically relate to the main idea.
Contingency Plans: In the unlikely event that we finish this lesson early, students may begin to work on
their narrative paragraphs, as outlined in the Extensions section of the lesson plan. Alternatively, students
may switch partners and share their mind maps with another student. If certain students finish the mind
maps and peer discussion early, those students may begin to work on the paragraphs. If some pairs finish the
sentence writing/gallery walk activity faster than others, I will give them a past continuous worksheet to
work on. In the likely event that the entire mind map activity moves to the next class to ensure it isnt rushed
and the there is some extra time, we will work on making a mind map as a class on the board, share story
ideas with the entire class or Ss may begin a homework worksheet.
