Introduction
1. The
teacher
will
review
the
components
of
the
prior
lesson
on
friendly

the
movements
to
refresh
their
memories
of
the
order
the
component
belong
in.
2. The
teacher
will
instruct
students
to
have
a
seat
and

Development
1. The
teacher
will
gain
students
attention
to
the
overhead
projector
screen
where
the
Ruby
Traits
transparency
will
be
displayed.
After
reviewing
this,
the
teacher
will
project
the
Letter
to
Ruby
Concept
Map
transparency
with
the
bubbles
covered
up.
The
teacher
will
ask
students
about
what
important
information
we
should
include
when
writing
a
letter
to
Ruby
Bridges.
As
students
respond,
the
teacher
will
begin
to
uncover
different
parts
of
the
concept
map
that
the
students
will
mention
(character
traits,
events,
questions).
2. The
teacher
will
uncover
all
the
bubbles
and
tell
students
that
they
will
have
to
make
sure
their
letter
contains
all
the
information
they
talked
about
on
the
concept
map.
3. The
teacher
will
have
paper
passers

teacher
helpers
pass
out
the
Letter

Ruby
Concept
Map
paper
copies
to
each

4. The
teacher
will
also
distribute
the
rough

letter
paper

components
of
a

information
from
the
concept
map
in
the
body
of
the
letter,
and
to
write
in
complete
sentences
with
their
best
handwriting.
The
teacher
will
tell
students
that
once
they
are
done
their
rough

they
must
proof-read
it
to
themselves
and
read
it
to
a
friend
before
coming

for
editing.

hand
if
they
know
who

When
a

Accommodations
/
Differentiation
-
v For
students
with
visual
impairments,
I
would
provided
an
enlarged
version
of
the
Ruby
Bridges
Concept
Map
and
ensure
student
has
access
to
assistive
technology
to
enlarge
lines
and
writing
during
the
lesson.
v For
students
who
need
more
direction
about
where
the
parts
of
letter
goes,
a
modified
letter
writing
handout
will
be
provided
(with
highlighted
spaces)
for
the
rough
draft
for
the
student(s)
to
keep
track
of
where
each
of
the
components
of
the
friendly
letter
belongs
prior
to
writing
their
final
copy.
Also,
a
check-list
would
be
provided
to
ensure
student
stays
on
track
with
the
tasks
necessary
to
complete
this
assignment.

Authentic
Assessment
Letters

Ruby
Students
will

instructed
to
create
their
own
friendly
letter
to
Ruby
Bridges.
This
letter
will
consist
the
five
components
of

those
traits,
and
a

B.
Personal
Reflection
Will
this
lesson
take
longer
than
a
day?
Yes.
This
lesson
took
a
total
of
three
days.
The
first
day
was
constructing
the
rough
draft.
That
night,
I
edited
the
rough
drafts
myself,
making
corrections
to
errors.
The
second
day,
students
received
their
rough
drafts
back
with
correction
marks
made
and
were
instructed
to
continue
on
to
the
final
copy.
On
the
third
day,
some
people
were
finishing
up
and
others
were
aloud
to
complete
an
illustration
of
Ruby
doing
something
at
school.
After
three
Writers
Workshop
periods,
the
final
copies
are
now
hanging
up
in
the
hallway,
final
copies
are
officially
graded,
and
students
will
see
their
final
products
hanging
up
in
the
hallways
on
Monday.
Reflection:
This
was
an
excellent
lesson
for
the
students
and
for
myself.
Ive
realized
that
I
have
to
be
mindful
of
the
margins
and
certain
types
of
paper
I
give
this
grade
level.
Students
in
first
grade
might
not
be
able
to
use
certain
type
of
paper
without
specific
directions.
Next
time,
I
might
choose
a
rough
draft
paper
that
goes
vertically
with
bolder
lines
than
horizontally
with
thinner
lines.
Also,
I
really
had
to
sentence
frame
some
parts
of
the
body
for
the
students.
This
was
very
helpful
for
students
to
use
as
a
guide
and
then
fill
in
their
thoughts,
feelings,
questions,
and
comments
to
Ruby
Bridges.
Overall,
I
was
extremely
pleased
with
the
end
product
that
every
student
created.
All
students
met
the
objective
of
the
lesson
and
created
a
wonderful,
authentic
assessment.
