Objective:  I can analyze the impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone, including language that is particularly fresh, engaging, or beautiful (RL11-12.4).
Agenda:
  • Entry Task:  As you come in, take a look at the pictures. Choose one to sit at (no more than 3 people per picture). With your small group, discuss why you selected that picture and what you find “fresh, engaging, or beautiful” about it.
  • These images come from Velocity of Being:  Letters to a Young Reader; each letter was written by an inspirational figure and then an artist designed the art to go with the letter.  In your groups, you will complete the following before reading the letter to the class:
    • Read the letter together--underline any words or phrases you think the artist found particularly fresh engaging, or beautiful
    • Read the blurb about the author at the bottom of the letter.  Circle any words or phrases you think influenced the letter’s word choice.
    • Paste the letter and art to the poster provided; copy some of the underlined words and phrases in your best handwriting around the letter and artwork.  
    • Divide the letter evenly to read to the class
  • Before we read the letters, turn to your attitude/tone and mood wheel.
    • What is the difference between attitude/tone and mood?
  • As the letters are read to the class, write down the mood you experience for each.
  • Exit Task:  Go back to the letter that let you experience the mood you most enjoyed and explain in your journal:
    • Who wrote the letter
    • Why you experienced that particular mood
    • A phrase you found particularly fresh, engaging, or beautiful
