Grade 6: Module 1: Unit 1: Lesson 8
Assessment Guidance
In Work Time B, as students answer text-dependent questions, review students’ answers to identify common issues. Use these common issues as teaching points in the whole group share-out in Closing and Assessment A.
Down the Road
In the next lesson, students engage in a Language Dive focused on word relationships and how those help to convey meaning. Students continue in their anchor text, reading from chapter 7, determining gist and unfamiliar vocabulary and then continuing to analyze how Riordan conveys Percy’s point of view. This work will be assessed during Lesson 11 via the mid-unit assessment.
For the rest of Unit 1, students continue to read chapters from The Lightning Thief, determining gist, recording unfamiliar vocabulary, and examining point of view and use of language. During Unit 2, students finish reading the novel, focusing on Percy’s character and themes in comparison to Greek myths to which they’ve been introduced through the novel.
