I feel that my students will be encouraging to do critical thinking and understanding of the text,
language/vocabulary while doing this lesson. The students will use their critical thinking as they
go through their scavenger hunt. They will be able to identify their sight words. They will pick
only their sight words not their classmates sight words. The students will be able to identify and
discuss their sight words when they are called on in class. They will also, be able to tell the
meaning of each word by using them in a complete sentence. The students will watch a video on,
how to pronounce different sight words. students will learn the definitions and the spelling of
each vocabulary words as well. The students will improve their reading by practice reading every
day. Overall, I feel that the students will master all the skill that are listed in this lesson.
