Lesson Plans - 6th GradeWhat makes good poetry? Students explore poets such as Langston Hughes, Shel Silverstein and Robert Frost and examine what makes their poetry so great. Students explore the book Jacob Have I Loved by Katherine Patterson through a study of its setting, characters, many conflicts, and resolutions. Can you help me write a research paper? While working in cooperative groups, students research a topic for an expository report. Students then work collaboratively to write, edit, and revise the report to produce a polished research paper. Students read two narrative reading selections and based on the reading, compare and contrast a character from each. This nine day mini unit is designed to help students understand and refine essays created for the writing section of the FCAT. |
