07-+Comprehension+and+Text+Structure+Activity

a. Objective: Students will be able to discuss the story of Anne Frank using what they learned from the textbook about WW II, the individual research they conducted, and the inferences that can be made from both.

b. Model: I would place the QAR image on the screen for students to see. Then I would show them how to fill out each box. I would start with the "Obvious" box. I would ask students what they thought was obvious when reading the book? I would only take one or two answers, write their answers on the board, then continue to the next box until we complete the activity.

c. Guided Practice: Students would then get into groups of 4 and each student will create their own QAR map (each group should end up with 4 different QAR maps). Once they have finished, each group will trade their 4 QARs with another group so that no one will have their own map.

d. Independent Practice: Each student will fill out their QAR. This will also serve as their assessment. After they have completed the QAR they will bring it to me. I will quickly look over it, if I see they got the concept they will be done. However if they seem to have struggled or not fully grasped the concept I will point them in the right direction and ask them to re-do it.

e.Assessment: see above!
