Learning Target/Task Analysis
While adept at reporting on a topic or text, telling a story, or recounting an event, fourth graders will focus on doing so in an organized, logical manner. The aforementioned items should be done orally and in coherent, spoken sentences. Fourth graders will do so at an appropriate pace. Attention to details to support main ideas or themes is important in fourth grade. Students in the fourth grade will combine audio recordings and visual displays, when appropriate, to enhance the development of main ideas or themes. Students in the fourth grade should be exposed to a numerous variety of speaking tasks so they will be able to distinguish between formal and informal discourse. Small-group discussions and formal presentations would be one example of each type of discourse.
I can...
I can orally report on a topic. I can add audio recordings and visual displays to presentations when appropriate. I can differentiate when to use formal English and informal discourse.
Students research an animal's habitat and environment and report their findings. Students create a science experiment and model it for the class. Students research a famous North Carolinian and teach the class about his/her life. Role Play comparing telling others on the playground about a book to presenting a book report. Memorize a verse from a poem and creat a rap from that verse.
Differentiation
Intervention:
Content must be adapted to students' needs through use of graphic organizers, outlines, labeling of pictures, study guides, adapted text, and highlighted text.
Enrichment:
Students use the computer to research and record information. Students can be videoed to explain their findings to the class. Students can record their findings and make a photostory presentation. Use Word, Publisher, and Powerpoint to create brochures and slideshows to present information to peers and class.
