Timing:

Learning Experiences:
Have students sitting at their desk. Explain that you are going to have a different
behaviour plan. It still has the three warnings, When someone has three crosses next to
their name, they are then on time out. There will be two students from every lesson that
will get a WOW award. The students who receive the WOW awards are the students who
listen when I am talking, do their work and participate in everything that we do.

Today we are going to look at the lost and found poems we have been looking at this
week. I am handing out worksheets foe you to complete. Your answers are to be in full
sentences please. When you have finished both worksheets please put your hand up.
When students put their hands up go and mark their worksheets. Ask them to glue their
worksheets into their writing books. As the first student finishes the found worksheet, stop
everyone, wait for everyone to give their attention, and show them how to glue it in
(the sheet is double sided). Give students the Dragonbirth worksheet and the poem to

complete as extension work.

Once everyone is done, or time is up (30 minutes) move into the writing part of the
lesson. Put the blown up copy of one of the students poems on the whiteboard so
everyone can see. Explain the marking guide to the students. Go through as a class and
mark the work together. Your books have all been marked, please go through and fix your
own work. Put your hand up when you have done this for both your Lost and Found
poem. I will then let you chose some coloured card to write a good copy of your poem on.

If students finish writing the good copies before lunch, give them the extension sheet from
reading to complete.
If students have been away, and missed one or both of the poems, it is okay for them to
copy the ones on the whiteboard. Ask students to either change the animal, or some of
the descriptive words in the poem. This will give the poem its own personal touch.
Differentiation:
(Differentiated instruction is the way in which a teacher anticipates and responds to a variety of
students' needs in the classroom. To meet students' needs, teachers differentiate by modifying the
content (what is being taught), the process (how it is taught) and the product (how students
demonstrate their learning).)

Kai Just needs to write something in his book. It can be a copy of the poems from
earlier this week. Also needs to attempt at least one of the comprehension sheets.
Ethan ask Ethan to try and write larger in his good copy of his poems so everyone can
read it with ease.
Josh - Should be able to get at least one of his good copies of his poem complete. At
least one of the comprehension sheets should be completed too.
