Devices 7th Grade Lesson Plan
This lesson plan is geared toward a 7th grade setting, but can be adapted for other grades. The purpose of this lesson is to allow students to read a poem with expression in order to convey meaning to the poem. Students will read a poem to each other and decide how the poem should be read in terms of where to get louder, softer, pause, or use voice to covey meaning. This lesson will show how oral reading of poetry may be useful in supporting fluency for students. Students will work with partners in selecting a poem from the Internet for oral reading. Once partners have agreed on how their poem should be read, they will create a PowerPoint presentation to visually show the expression of the poem. Students will have the option of showing their presentation and read their poem to the class or pre-record as a voice over to the presentation using the iPad.
