Time: 10 minutes
Objective:
Students will demonstrate their understanding of sentence variation by making corrections and
inserting various types of sentences appropriately in their writing.
Materials:
● White Board and Marker
● Anchor chart with examples of types of sentences.
Lesson Sequence:
4. Guided Practice
a. “I want you all to try, turn and talk to your partner and find another sentence in
our passage that can be changed. Discuss and agree upon a correction to make
and be ready to share.”
b. *Reconvene and take suggestions from 3-4 pairs*
5. Independent Practice/Assessment
a. “Today when you return to your writing, before you continue, read it over and see
if there are any changes you can make to the types of sentences you use. If you
think you used enough variety or you do not think that would work well with your
story, leave it alone! Make corrections based on what you feel is best for your
story. Today and everyday as you write, I want you all to think about how you can
vary your sentences to engage your audience.”
b. “Stay on the carpet with me if you are not confident in how to use different types
of sentences in your writing. We will do more practice together. Everyone else
can begin writing and correcting.”
c. Check in with students during writing conferencing. Products and stories will
display students' knowledge of using various types of sentences in writing.
Differentiation:
● Anchor chart will remain displayed for students to reference throughout the week.
● I will prepare a handout for students who remain on the carpet with more sentence
practice and examples.
