Procedures: What will you do and say? (A bulleted list, very thorough, write down everything you will say and do and what you expect the children to do; align with goals and standards.)
• T: Group one lets gather on the back carpet for our mini lesson.
• Students leave desks and come to sit on the back carpet around me. The rest of the class works on their rotation’s assignment.
• T: As you know we have been talking about inferring during our rotations. This is important work because it allows us to be good readers and use our prior knowledge and clues from the text to draw conclusions and form an understanding of the text. Today, while you are reading Ghosts in The House I want you to use your knowledge and clues from the book to help to …show more content…
The book is called Ghosts in The House and I see on the back cover that a young girl is running into her parent’s room with a frightened look on her face, and they are all wearing pajamas. I think this book is going to be about a young girl who finds ghosts in her house during the night and she wants her parents to come see them.
• T: Did you notice how I used what I know from prior knowledge about when people are wearing pajamas that usually means it is night time to come to the conclusions that the girl most likely will find the ghosts during the night time. I know that she will find ghosts because I am using clues from the Title.
• T: Before you start reading I want you to remember that good readers make use clues from the book and what they know to understand what is going to happen in the book based on events in the book and what the characters say and do. Not all of the information is directly written in books so it is important to use your knowledge and details from the book to determine what the author wants you to …show more content…
• T: I want you to each read until the end of page 8 and then stop and think about what you have read and what you think is going to happen.
• T: I will have one student individually read out loud to me. (This is how my coaching teacher keeps track of the students’ reading progress)
• T: Once each student has read to the end of page 8 we will stop and discuss what we have read.
• T: Before reading I thought that the young girl was going to find ghosts in the in her house during the night and want her parents to come see them. So far my inference has not been confirmed, but now I have more information from the text to revise my inference. I now know that she lives in an old farmhouse and she is hearing noises in her attic at night. She thinks that a raccoon has gotten into the attic and is causing the noises. I know from my prior knowledge that sometimes animals do get into attics, so I infer that Virginia will go into the attic and find some type of animal up there.
• T: I now want you to turn to your knee partner and discuss with them what inferences you gave made so far about the book.
• T: Have the group turn back to me and we will discuss this together.
• T: What inferences have you
