For heavier support:
■ During Work Time A, distribute a partially lled-in copy of the Character Reaction Note-catcher: “Las Cebollas.” This will provide students with models for the kind of information they should enter, while relieving the volume of writing required. Refer to Character Reaction Note-catcher: “Las Cebollas” (example, for teacher reference) to determine which sections of the note-catcher to provide to students.
Universal Design for Learning
■ Multiple Means of Representation (MMR): Throughout this unit, students incorporate what they are reading into their writing. Consider ways to facili- tate increased comprehension by repeatedly o ering opportunities for students to access prior knowledge and review previous material. Additionally, use a color-coding system to help students make connections between the model par- agraphs and the Character Reaction Paragraph anchor chart. This way, students can see how to apply these writing strategies to their own work.
■ Multiple Means of Action and Expression (MMAE): Throughout this unit, students build the skills necessary to generate a character reaction paragraph. Consider providing a list of possible criteria and have students match the criteria to the model paragraph. When writing a character reaction paragraph as a class, allow all students opportunities to participate even if they cannot generate an orig- inal sentence at this point. Rather, have students who may need additional support explain why their classmate’s sentence ts the criteria on the anchor chart.
■ Multiple Means of Engagement (MME): Some students may feel overwhelmed by the learning outcomes of this unit. Assure them that this is a new skill and they will have plenty of opportunities to practice and improve throughout the unit.
