Introduction: (5 minutes)
- Students will pair up and discuss what an introduction is.
- Teacher will explain that an introduction gives readers a preview of what the rest of a text
will be about. Introductions usually start with a hook.
- Explain that a hook is an opening sentence that catches a reader's attention.
7. Includes a detailed description of the practicing of the new writing information that
was just taught.
a. The practicing of the new writing information would be implemented in my final
segment which is an independent working time. This is a 25 minute segment
including the following:
i. Students will then take out one writing assignment they worked on in the
year, that they want to improve.
ii. They will choose three strategies (questions, dialogue, onomatopoeia,
setting, fact, funny…) and write three different hooks using the worksheet
provided below.
iii. Then have them share with their neighbor their improved hooks.
8. Includes a description of how the teaching and practice activity helped accomplish
your objectives?
a. The teaching and practice activity helped accomplish my objective by allowing
students to see models of hooks in novels and allow them to explore on their own
by identifying hooks. The teaching provided the students with knowledge on the
different hook writing strategies and the independent and take home activity
requires them to create their own hooks.
9. Includes an evaluation of the practice activities. NOTE: your evaluation cannot
simply be that you are circulating and watching the students. Tell me how you will
know that the students have accomplished the purpose of the activity.
a. After the guided practice, to ensure they have done what they were assigned, I
will randomly call on a few students to share what they found. This way students
will have to be prepared, in case they are called on.
b. Another way to ensure students understood, is to have students summarize what
they were being asked.
c. A final way is after the student finds their favorite novel and identifies a hook
from that novel, have them raise their hand or write their name on the board.
10. Includes an appropriate out-of-class practice (application) of the content.
a. My out- of- class practice is to have students read the introduction to a novel and
rewrite their own hook for the novel using one of the strategies taught.
