- 2. Analyze the Learner • I’m teaching a private school 7th grade class English class. • My classroom has 16 students. • 9 girls and 7 boys • 2 of my girls are vision impaired, • 3 (2 boys and 1 girl) have ADD, • 1 student has an IEP, • And 1 student has Asperger's.
- 3. Main Objective • My students will demonstrate their understanding of the different types of genres and writing styles by writing three journal entries showing any of the genres and writing styles they choose over the course of a week with 90% accuracy.
- 4. Day-to-Day • Day One- I will introduce my students to genre and writing style. The definitions and most common of both will be discussed. Examples will be shown in popular writing and students will be asked to write down a few of their own examples of each. • Day Two- The class will focused on how genre and writing style are connected. • Day Three- Students will be seated in small groups, and asked to exchange ideas for each of the different genres and styles of writing. They will be assigned a specific type and will create a book cover poster to hang in the class room.
- 5. Day-to-Day • Day Four- The students will go to the library and find books that represent each of the genres and include the specific writing styles we’ve talked about. • Day Five- Students will spend the class period journaling about three genres and writing styles of their choice. They will include the books they found at the library in their journals as well.
