“I can use word relationships to determine meaning in The Lightning Thief.”
Tell students they will now participate in day 1 of a two-day Language Dive to examine
how relationships between words help us determine meaning.
Reread aloud page 96 of The Lightning Thief.
Focus students on the sentence:
“I thought about some of the kids I'd seen in the Hermes cabin, teenagers who looked sullen and depressed, as if they were waiting for a call that would never come” (96).
Use the Language Dive Guide: The Lightning Thief , Page 96 (for teacher reference) and the Language Dive: The Lightning Thief , Page 96 sentence chunk strips to guide students through a Language Dive conversation about the sentence. Display and distribute the Language Dive: The Lightning Thief , Page 96 note-catcher and colored pencils.
See the Language Dive: The Lightning Thief , Page 96 note-catcher (example for teacher reference).
During the Language Dive, continue to use Goal 1 Conversation Cues to gauge student comprehension and encourage students to elaborate upon or clarify their responses.
Administer the Language Dive in small groups, and sit near students in need of most additional support. During the quick partner discussions embedded in the Language Dive, work directly with these students and monitor progress.
Repeated routine: Invite students to reflect on their progress toward the relevant learning targets.
