listen to each other regarding examples of STEAL for characterization.

ication class activity. They will practice finding an aspect of characterization on a video
of Hercules. The students will then apply what they have practiced regarding a
character from our text, ​The Lightning Thief.

the students will work in groups.

Assessment created in our groups. Each group will share for the character they have been
assigned.

Accommodations: Students in this class have text-to speech

accommodations and small group testing, however no accommodations
that affect this lesson.
Cultural Considerations: This class will have just MAP tested for four days
in a row. They are exhausted and a little bit hyper to put it nicely. We also
have not read this book for the past week as we have been testing.

Areas of improvement:

Content/Language Objectives Stated

Content/Language Objectives Revisited

Assessment of learning at end of class

In order to improve on the first lesson, I will be sure to RECORD and state my objectives at the
beginning of class, as well as at the end of the lesson. An area of growth for me has always been
re-stating objectives throughout the lesson as well as at the end of class. In addition, I will be sure
to assess knowledge of our new concept at the end of class.
