Essential Questions

  • How can I share my learning with others?

Lesson Plan

Learners will be preparing a final presentation to share with their family members.

Once you have given your learners a brief idea of the agenda of the day, model what their presentation of learning will look like; bring a student volunteer up to be a parent, sit side by side with a completed story in between you to discuss, and display sentence stems on the board behind you. Give a mock presentation as a student. End with an invitation to flip through the portfolio and ask questions and have discussion.

Some sentence frames include: I chose my ____________ story to share with you.

I chose this piece because___________________.

In this unit we learned_______________________.

It was important for me to share ________ because__________. You can see that over here in my story I_________________________.
