just struggle with thinking of something. I addressed this by brainstorming characters and settings earlier
in the week as we read scary stories together. Next, I used story starter and problem idea dice to help the
students when we got to those parts of the lesson. I wanted the students to come up with their own
solution and ending but those students who needed help we brainstormed ideas together.
To extend this lesson for those who met this target, I would move them into learning higher concepts of
writing. Now that they know the sequence of a story with the elements of character, setting, problem, and
solution, the students can move on to developing their writing with details and focusing on mechanics. If I
taught this lesson again I dont think I would really change anything because it went really well except for
making time to do a closure and trying to model better (I DO), which were some things to work on
mentioned by my UFC. My students really enjoyed this lesson and I know it because they were very
engaged and on task- more so than they have been in language arts!
