Presentation transcript:

Do Now: Imagine you could go back in time and see yourself again as a 3 rd grader. On your Do Now paper, answer these questions: What is different about the way you dress? Why? What is different about the way you talk? Why? What is different about your personality? Why? What is the same about your personality? Why hasn’t that changed? Look at your reading journal. In what ways did Sae Young change when she joined the garden?

What kinds of things cause people to change their personalities, their motive, or their points of view?

DEJ: Seedfolks: “Nora” & “Maricela” Read these two chapters in Seedfolks. Write in your journal as we have been doing all along. Keep your eyes open for the ways these two women change (or don’t change) in the story. Keep your eyes open for why these women change (or don’t change) in the story. Also include journaling about all the other aspects we’ve been talking about—questions, inferences, motives, etc.

Turn and Talk Have an authentic discussion with your elbow partner about these two characters. Discuss the changes you noticed in each of them and discuss what events in the story caused those changes.

Cause & Effect Graphic Organizers Discuss with students how they could create a graphic organizer that would show cause and effect. One possibility is before-event-after: Personality or attitude at the beginning of the story Event that caused the change Personality or attitude at the end of the story

Graphic Organizers Sometimes more than one event causes the change: Before1 st Event 2 nd Event 3 rd Event After

Graphic Organizers Sometimes one event causes more than one change: BeforeEvent Change 1 Change 2 Change 3

Turn to a new page in your journal… Choose a character from Seedfolks who has changed because of the community garden. Think about how and why that person changed. Choose a character trait before, an event (or events) and a character trait (or more than one) after. Create an appropriate graphic organizer to illustrate that change. Put details in each of the flow chart boxes. Discuss your chart with your elbow partner or small group.

Class Discussion: Voice How does Marciella’s voice change in her chapter? Why do you think Marciella listened to Leona when she’s ignored so many others’ voices? How do you decide who to listen to? What is the effect of Mr. Myles’ lack of voice? How is Curtis’ voice “silenced” by Lateesha? What are ways peoples’ voices are silenced in the real world?
