    PLANNING
    Character Trait Grace for President
    ELA Writing
    Character Trait
    1 hour
    Number of students: 24
    Race: 17 hispanic, 1 Native American, 4 black, 2 white
    English Language Proficiency: all 24 students are English speakers
    Gender: 14 female 10 male
    Exceptionalities: 2 boys and 1 girl have IEPs where the resource teacher pulls them for reteach. This
    happens 4 times a week, for 30 minute sessions. Assistance and reteach is done for reading, writing and
    math.
    Cultural Considerations: students are 98% low SES. Students do not have a lot of access to technology
    in home environment. Most students in my class have never traveled outside of Tucson, besides
    traveling to Nogales, AZ or Nogales, Mexico.
    Other information: One boy is identified as AD/HD and takes medication when parents bring the pills to
    school.
    01.W.5 Given a topic with adult support, students will write at least 3 sentences about the topic as
    measured by Arizona Holistic Writing Rubric Data.
    Students will be able to describe Grace in Grace for President by filling in a character chart using phonetic
    spelling and details from the text without support.
    Students will be able to explain one of Graces character traits in Grace for President by drawing and
    writing using phonetic spelling and details from the text.
    With prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text. (K.RI.1)
    Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to compose informative/explanatory texts in which
    they name what they are writing about and supply some information about the topic. (K.W.2)

    Assessment (formative
    and/or summative)

    During the lesson, I will listen to students while they ask and answer questions about the text. I
    will also walk around while students are writing to check for understanding of character traits.
    Students should understand that character traits include any type of details about a character.

    Resources (texts,
    technology, materials, etc.)

    LESSON DELIVERY

    Introduction (anticipatory
    set, thinking device,
    advance organizer, lesson
    hook)

    # of minutes: 2
    I will explain to students that we will be continuing our focus on presidents. Students will pair share
    something they know about presidents already (ex: George Washington is our first president).
    I will then explain the objectives to students to ensure they are prepared.
    Description
    UDL Engagement:
    Activate or supply background knowledge

    Lesson activities (content,


    methods, strategies,
    procedures, formative
    assessment)

    Rationale
    It is important for students to build their
    comprehension skills. Activating background
    knowledge before starting a lesson is a great way
    to do that.
    # of minutes: 50
    1. We will begin by going over new vocabulary words for the story (snickering, truth, promises).
    Students will repeat the word after I say it, and then pair share what they think each word
    means. Next, students will share with the group what they think the words may mean. Finally,
    the teacher will give students the proper definition, along with a kinesthetic movement.
    Snickering: to laugh (rub belly)
    Truth: what really happened (put a thumbs up)
    Promises: to agree to do something (touch your heart)
    2. Teacher will explain how a character is someone whose activities, thoughts and feelings are
    revealed in a story. I will explain how characters have traits, the way they think, act and feel

    inside. I will introduce the text Grace for President, discussing the front and title page of the
    book, then I will read the story to the class.
    3. I will ask students to help me generate a list of character traits for Grace. I will explain that
    character traits can be determined through actions and dialogue. I will have students pair-share
    what they think one of Graces character traits is.
    4. Using phonetic spelling and help from students, I will fill in a t-chart on the board that has We
    think Grace is on one side and because on the other.
    5. I will explain to students that they will go to their seats at their tables and write 3 different
    character traits for Grace and write why they feel that way.
    Accommodations: Students will use preferential seating. Students who struggle with focusing and
    understanding the concept of character traits will sit near the front of the board. Teacher will make
    sure students understand the directions by checking in with them after they have returned to their
    table seats. Teacher will frequently model independent work. Teacher will provide visual cues.
    Students can also draw and dictate about Graces character traits instead of writing, if needed.
    Description:
    UDL representation
    Provide options for perception

    UDL engagement:
    Provide options for sustained efforts and
    persistence

    Rationale:
    I will have visual and verbal representations for
    each of the 3 vocabulary words. Use of visual
    cues is a powerful tool for helping students
    become resourceful and knowledgeable learners.
    I will foster collaboration and community by
    giving students the opportunity to pair share their
    ideas about Graces character traits. This will
    give students who love to share an opportunity to
    share, as well as give those quieter students who
    may be unsure about their answer an opportunity
    to safely share with one person in the class.

    UDL action & expression:


    Provide options for physical action

    Closure

    I will guide students through vocabulary words


    by giving them a verbal definition with a
    kinesthetic movement that matches the
    definition. This will help students remember
    their vocabulary words with more ease.

    # of minutes: 8
    At the end of the lesson, I will have students pair up with a peer of their choice and share what they wrote
    about Graces character traits. I will be moving around the room listening while students share. Next I
    will call 3 students up to share their writing with the class.
    After students have shared, I will inform them that tomorrows lesson will focus on comparing two
    different characters from Duck for President and Grace for President.

    UDL principle & description (at least 1):


    Provide option for recruiting interest. I will utilize this UDL principle by giving students a choice of who
    they want to share their work product with.
