Objective: I can introduce the “best part of me” and organize a complex idea about myself so that each new element builds on that which precedes it to create a unified whole; include a heading and photograph formatted as the cover for my About Me Portfolio (W11-12.2a).
Agenda:
  • Entry Task:  Sit on the floor and be ready to listen to the stories shown.
  • After the reading of The Best Part of Me, review what figurative language the children use in their stories--what did you notice?
  • Review the definitions of figurative language on the Best Part of Me handout
    • Practice using the figurative language on five “parts” in the handout
    • Try to select parts that are unique to you--they can also be internal.
  • Now it’s time for the photograph!  
    • For this part, you can use a picture you already have on your phone, but you may need to crop in order to focus on the “part”
    • You may also take a new picture--feel free to use any filters or color elements that enhance the “part”
    • Try to showcase in a way that helps to “reveal” the figurative language that you have incorporated
  • Trade your practices with a neighbor and star on your partner’s handout which of the figurative language are best used.  
  • When you get your paper back, narrow it down to one “part” which you think is the best.
    • Write a descriptive paragraph, poem, or letter to the “Best Part of Me” incorporating figurative language--the more the merrier!
Go back through and STAR your writing as this is a required component of your About Me Portfolio.
Exit Task:  For this part, you can use a picture you already have on your phone, but you may need to crop in order to focus on the “part.” You may also take a new picture--feel free to use any filters or color elements that enhance the “part.” Try to showcase in a way that helps to “reveal” the figurative language that you have incorporated. Once you have selected a photograph, email it to your teacher to be printed out in color as a cover for your About Me Portfolio.
