 Today we are going to continue our  work on learning how to analyse a short text. For this task you will be using the excerpt form City Night, Chapter 8. A copy of the story in  your Hapara workspace.


Last week we read the story, and today we are going to develop a coggle to help us identify the main ideas in the story and identify specific evidence/quotes from the story to support our ideas.

Then we are going to look at 1 aspect - THE SETTING of the story, discuss and write about how this is important.


LI: We are learning to analyse a short story and respond to a question using the SEXY paragraph structure.

SC: I can read the story, participate in the class discussion, to share my ideas.

SC: I can select a question and use the SEXY structure to write my paragraph.

Lesson Sequence.
