주목할 만한 순록: 논픽션 연구 및 드로잉

Are you ready to become a reindeer expert? Then this class is for YOU! In this class we will be learning fun facts about reindeer from written facts & a few videos, while also learning how to use graphic organizers to record our research. In addition, I will be leading a directed drawing of a reindeer that we will label. This lesson will help your student become a rockstar researcher, which will help them write amazing non-fiction stories. At the end of our lesson, there will be a comprehension check to test their reindeer knowledge! For this class, it is best that your student is able to write independently. I will be guiding our writing so they don't have to do it alone, but we will be moving quickly!    

Lesson Outline: At the beginning of class, the focus animal (reindeer) will be introduced to the student. Together, the teacher and student will brainstorm what they already know about reindeer and what they would like to know about reindeer.

 The teacher will read facts about reindeer, with a few videos and pictures to supplement the facts being presented.     

We will then work on our Reindeer Report. We will answer questions about where reindeer live, what they eat, what they look like, and we will write your learner’s favorite fact.

Students will then join the teacher to draw and label a picture of a reindeer. A reindeer drawing page will be provided, but not required. They may use blank drawing paper if needed. The students may color their reindeer at the end of class!    

To end the lesson, students will work together to become a reindeer fact finder. Using the handout provided, the teacher will asks the students questions by displaying the questions on the computer screen, the students will respond, and then the students will record the answer to each question on their fact finder page.      

Assistance will be provided to students as needed.
