Once students understand what inferences are. I will distribute the Malala’s worksheet to the
students. I will show the cover of the book to the students and ask them to make an inference
why the illustrator use golden color for the pencil? I will give 2 minutes to the student to make
an inference. When students are done, ask a few students to share their thoughts.
Now I will ask all the students to gather at the carpet and I will read the book to them.
Continue reading the book and after reading the end of page 18, ask students to jot down any
questions that have come to their mind at this point. Remind them that good readers always ask
questions. Sometimes we can read on to find answers, sometimes we have to go to other sources,
sometimes our questions remain unanswered. But good readers are always thinking. Give
students 2 minutes to write questions and ask a few students to share.
After reading to the end of page 28 ask students to connect with Malala: Ask students how would
they describe Malala based on her actions? Readers are always making connections with the
characters in the books. This is a way of putting ourselves in their shoes and understanding their
stories more fully. When we connect, we better remember what we have read too!
After finishing the book ask students to jot down a few thoughts about what they think the theme
of the book might be. Tell them that when we think about the theme, we can think about life
lessons the author may want us to take away from the book. What lessons might we learn from
Malala's story? Students can work with their shoulder partner and once they are done they can
submit this worksheet as the exit ticket.
Now show the students the short video about the Malala’s book and students can also review
what I have just read
