2nd Law – – Force equals mass times Force equals mass times acceleration acceleration (F = ma)(F = ma)..

Objects tend to resist a change in motion. This

is called:

At the end of the school year you will be completing a reading and writing assignment

called a performance task. The purpose for this is to show how well you are developing and growing

as readers and writers.

It’s time to randomly assign partners for our next task! (Remember, a task is a job that needs to be

completed.)

Now, get your pencil and pair up!

Do you remember the personal narrative and fictional narrative that

you worked on previously?

• Remember another word for narrative is story, One of the writing tasks you will do at the end of the year is a narrative. This week we will learn strategies for doing well on the narrative writing portion of the performance task.

Narrative WritingNarrative Writing

Let’s record your responses to the following questions on a chart titledchart titled: ““What We Have Learned About Narrative Writing”What We Have Learned About Narrative Writing”

•What have you learned about good narrative, or fiction, writing?•What did you do to make your narrative piece interesting and easy to read?

What We Have Learned About Narrative WritingWhat We Have Learned About Narrative Writing• Begins with an opening that makes the reader want

to keep reading (a hook)• Includes interesting characters and events• Describes the setting of the story• Has a chronological sequence of events• Sometimes includes dialogue• Stays focused and makes sense• Uses sensory details• Establishes a point of view• Follows writing rules for spelling, punctuation,

capitalization, and grammar

Does our chart include the following?Does our chart include the following?

Let’s be sure to refer back to this as we

prepare for our narrative writing

performance task.

Performance Task Topic through a map, video, and eventually a brochure!

• I will use guided practice to help you learn about a topic so you will be able to answer research questions and write stories about the topic.

• Today, you will learn and then write about some of the monuments and memorials you might see if you took an imaginary trip to our nation’s capital, Washington, D.C.

• The sources will focus on the major monuments and memorials in an area called the National Mall and the nearby Tidal Basin.

Monument and MemorialMemorial

• MonumentMonument – something that is built in memory of a person or event

• MemorialMemorial – something that keeps memories alive

• A monument is also a type of memorial. The Washington Monument is a memorial built to help us remember and honor George Washington.

First Source – Map of Washington, D.C.Map of Washington, D.C.

• This map shows the monuments and memorials of the National Mall and Tidal Basin.

• Let’s look at the “National Mall and Memorial Parks” chart

First Source – Map of Washington, D.C.Map of Washington, D.C.

• Now, your turn to look at your own copy of the map

• Let’s look at the Lincoln Memorial on the west (left) side of the map.

First Source – Map of Washington, D.C. Map of Washington, D.C. study continued

• Notice that the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, the World War II Memorial, and the Washington Monument are located to the east (right) of the Lincoln Memorial.

• Notice the Tidal Basin and the monuments around it (Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, and the Thomas Jefferson Memorial.)

What questions do you have about the map of What questions do you have about the map of Washington D.C.?Washington D.C.?

Video TimeVideo Time

• Now, you will watch a video called “Lincoln Memorial”

• In this video, a ranger shares some of the thoughts and feelings he had the first time he visited the Lincoln Memorial, and he also describes details about the memorial

• I will play the video, but I will be stopping it three times. At each stop, you will talk with your partner about what you learned.

Note Taking Time• We’ll watch the video again, but as a class and in

pairs, you will complete the graphic organizer (note-taking chart), to take notes on what you are learning about the Lincoln Memorial.

• In the left-hand column write Lincoln Memorial left-hand column write Lincoln Memorial and underline it

• You will list details and descriptions of the memorial below the name of the memorial or monument.

• In the right-hand column you will write any right-hand column you will write any thoughts or feelingsthoughts or feelings you might have if you were to visit the memorial. This will be useful when you plan and write your narrative (story) about visiting the monuments of Washington, D.C.

We will follow the same procedure as the first time we watched the video.
