Grade 6: Module 1: Unit 3: Lesson 6
Select a volunteer to read the headings on page 1 of the organizer, clarifying as needed. If students need additional support in understanding the organizer, share the Narrative Writing Plan graphic organizer (for teacher reference) that goes with the Model Narrative.
Direct students’ attention to the Work to Become E ective Learners anchor chart. Focus students on perseverance, and remind them to attend to this habit of character as they engage in this challenging work.
Direct students to work individually to begin the character section on page 1 of the Narrative Writing Plan graphic organizer.
Circulate and support students as they plan. Remind them to be creative but to remember that their narratives should be based on a scene from The Lightning Thief, and to refer to their research and the model narrative as they plan.
If needed, model doing quick sketches within the graphic organizer as placeholders for information. Tell students that they can sketch first, so that they don’t forget the information they want to add. Then, they can go back later and write.
Repeated routine: Invite students to reflect on their progress toward the relevant learning targets.
