**COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, HEALTH AND REHABILITATION **  **LESSON PLAN FORMAT **     Student will understand that the themes in the book are key elements in the book. Students will know plot, relevance to history, theme, motif, symbols, events including "sale of Celie" and how each directly relates to how things have changed in America. Student will be able to make claims to prove how things have changed.  Arts A. Reading A2 Literary Texts Grades 9-Diploma: The Color Purple Students read text within a grade appropriate span of text complexity and present analyses of fiction using excerpts from the text to defend their assertations. f. Demonstrate comprehension by evaluating texts using established criteria   Students will participate in a discussion showing what they have learned thus far on the subjects at hand. Students will learn to voice their opinion and vocalize proof. Students will prove that they understand texts and how to cite them verbally and in written form. Students will be assessed on their participation in said activities, and the knowledge that they show they have learned.   Students will look at topics from the class discussion and further discuss them in a forum thread. Students will fill out a self assessment of how they participated during the discussions and group activities that took place. Students will begin a forum thread by writing their opinion about an event in the novel, where they must then explain how they believe that it will change. After they have done this, they will look at and comment on at least two other topics. All quotes and specific examples must be cited. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Social Sciences: Students will think about how America has changed in order to determine how events would unfold today. Health: Students will discuss emotional consequences and the personal ramifications that are caused by certain events. Technology: Students will listen to music and watch a music video in order to find themes throughout the music. Students will use a forum thread to continue the class discussion and react to the thoughts of their peers. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Students will get into groups of three or four by choosing a playing card. Matching cards will group together and choose an event from the book to discuss. Each group will be given a sheet of newsprint that they will write the event on. Markers will be handed out at the same time as the newsprint. Each group will write how they think the event would have changed and why. The papers will circulate throughout each of the groups until they have been seen by each group. I will collect the papers and we will discuss each of the rationales written on the sheets. Each group will have to discuss what they wrote and why for each event. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">I will review students' IEPs, 504s, or ELLIDEPs, and make the appropriate modifications and accommodations.

While the groups are interacting I will mill around the room pointing out different directions of thinking. This will help students further their discussion and learn new things. I will check for understanding in a number of ways. First I will notice how they participate in the class discussion. This will tell me if they are prepared (in that they have read the book) and whether or not they understand what has happened in the novel thus far. I will check once again through the group activity, to see if they are contributing plausible scenarios and if they are actively participating.

I will then have them take their paper with the event on it and make sure that each group understands how the event could unfold given a time change. When the time is up, students will stay with their groups, and the papers will be posted at the front of the room. A spokesperson from each group will have to speak and explain why the group believed that the event would unfold in this new way. This will give each student more substance for the online forum thread discussion, and will be able to prepare ideas for what they would like to discuss. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Students will have a chance to fill out a self evaluation of their participation.

They will see that their peers think either the same or differently from them. I will give students feedback on the forum thread. This will connect to when the students compare events in the book to the times of slavery. I will give students their self evaluations the following class with notes about how they did in class and if there is anything that they should work on for the next meeting. <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> = =
 * Absent Students: **<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> If students are absent from the class, students will be responsible for seeing me or another student to retrieve information from the class missed. If students will have an extended absent, arrangements must be made with me in order to have word sent home for the duration of the absence. If students do not make arrangements, they must arrange a meeting with me in order to decide on a plan as to when any missed work will be completed.
