A. Standard
MDE grade level or CCSS
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.4.9
Integrate information from two texts on the same topic in order to write or speak about the subject knowledgeably.
TSW track their thinking by writing on sticky notes to describe observations they are making while reading
their two penguin excerpt texts.
I CAN describe how information on the same subtopic is organized in various texts.
Formative Assessment...
Students will provide a completed comparison chart (3-column chart) with at least 3 sentences in each of
the three elements.
Lesson Management:
Brainstorm similarities and differences of the pairings: (Pikachu and Squirtle) (Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford).
Model tracking (coding) thinking while reading excerpts on the subtopic “where penguins live”.
Model creating a venn diagram to compare information using the excerpts on the subtopic “where penguins live”.
Track their thinking using sticky notes for the 2 excerpts on the subtopic “penguins and humans”.
Create their 3-column chart on the subtopic “penguins and humans”.
Show the teacher the completed tracked thinking and 3-column chart.
Student Management:
Movement-
Students will move to different areas of the classroom to complete their group work task.

Task analysis:
• What information does the learner need? If needed how will it be provided?
• How is the lesson scaffolded?
Task Analysis
• Display the first pairing images on the board
• Discuss first pairing’s similarities and differences
• Display the second pairing images on the board
• Discuss the second paring’s similarities and differences
• TTW review subtopics in a nonfiction text
• TTW introduce and display the two learning targets on the board
• TSW write down the learning targets in their reading notebooks
• TTW introduce the penguin subtopic and the two texts for whole group instruction
• TTW demonstrate responsive reading by modeling tracking thinking with at least 3 sticky
notes (on the document camera)
• TTW model comparison thinking through creating a venn diagram with a minimum of one
sentence in each of the three portions (on the document camera)
Benedetto 3
• TTW demonstrate the transfer of information from a venn diagram to a 3-column chart (on
the document camera)
• TTW introduce the penguin subtopic for small group work and instruct the groups to read
the two texts, track their thinking with at least 3 sticky notes per excerpt, and create a 3
column comparison chart with at least 3 sentences for each portion. Each student has
their own sticky notes. This happens on “GO”.
• TTW provide the class with their groups and designated work area. One representative of
the group will go to the teacher to receive sticky notes for the group
• TSW complete the group work tasks.
• When complete, the student will come to the teacher to show their work
• Closure
*early finishers may read about penguins on Epic! with a nonfiction text.
1.Remediation/Intervention-
Students who have received guided support in ELA will only need to write a minimum of 1 sentence in each of the
three columns in the 3-column chart.
2.Extension/Enrichment-
Students who are highly motivated in ELA may create a venn diagram comparing a text used in the
“penguins and humans” and a text they find online in Epic! that covers the same subtopic.
F. Modeling: I Do
SHOW/TELL (Visual/Verbal Input)
HOW/WHAT (Questioning and redirecting)
• Model how to track thinking with sticky notes
• Model comparison thinking
• Model transferring of thinking from a venn diagram to a 3-column chart
H. Guided Practice: We Do
What do the teacher and student do together?
How will a gradual release of responsibility accomplished?
Brainstorm thinking and comparisons between two excerpts from two separate texts on the same subtopic.
During creation of venn diagram, students will contribute their ideas.
J. Closure
How will the I can statement(s) be reviewed?
How will students be involved?
What connections to future learning will occur?
Students will return to their seats and the class will review the I can statement learning targets guided by the teacher.
K. Assessment
What evidence supports that the objective(s) were met?
What do my students know, understand and are able to do?
What formative assessments will be used to inform
instruction?
If the student has completed 3 tracking sticky notes for each of the 2 excerpts and has included 3 sentences in each
of the 3 portions of their 3-column chart, the lesson objectives have been met.
Reflection on the lesson and data collected will drive further instruction.
L. Reflection
How do you know that the objective(s)/target(s) was met? What
is your evidence?
Using your assessment data how will you change the lesson or
instruction for the next time?
How well did the students perform/respond? Were all my
students engaged?
How was my timing?
How many students struggled? What will I do to help the
student(s) who struggled?
What will I do to extend the learning for those students who
met target?
What did everyone know? What did no one know? Were there
any surprises?
