Presentation transcript:

Read the following story and answer the questions on a sheet of paper. “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” – Ernest Hemingway Write at least 2 sentences answering the following questions: What is this short story about? How can you prove your interpretation?

Consume, Critique, Produce: Read a short story, passage, or a book. This is the mentor text(s). Critique Answer the question, “What is this piece of literature composed of?” Produce Write a text similar to the original consumed text. Using the mentor text as a guide, write a piece of literature that is the same genre and uses the same conventions.

Hemingway Short Story Think Aloud “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” Monitor Reading Comprehension Make predictions. Ask questions. Identify new vocabulary. Make connections. Pose and answer questions.

Bridging the Gap (Answer on that sheet of paper.) How many words are in Hemingway’s short story? What kind of punctuation does the author use? How many other meanings can you think of? Tell me about them. What is it called when we guess meaning which is neither obvious nor directly stated?

Inferencing Mini Lesson What is an inference? What information makes up an inference?

An inference is… a conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning an educated guess We learn about some things by experiencing them first-hand, but we gain other knowledge by inference — the process of inferring things based on what is already known. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=to30AJm2epQ

Sooooooo… (Answer on that sheet of paper.) What inferences did you draw from Hemingway’s short story? What background knowledge did you use to make the connection? What proof did you use to support it?

Independent Practice Write five 6 word short stories. You can write one about your summer using the stem provided below: “Summer 17:…” Write one about your school principal: “Mr. Sanchez:...” Write one about yourself: “First name Last name:...” Create your own stem using the mentor text. Share with your shoulder partner.

Student Examples Day 7: Dead inside, still alive. Summer ‘17: Summer assignment not done. Summer ‘17: Vacation to its fullest. Summer ‘17: Riding horses, having fun. You’ve changed your cracks. It’s frightening.
