Lesson 11-3
|
Lesson: Synthesizing is like making cookies in your brain.
- Show kids a recipe
for chocolate chip cookies.
- When we make cookies we take all the ingredients and we mix them together to create
a wonderful and delicious treat.
- When we synthesize we take all the information an author included in their text and
we mix it all together to create a wonderful party in our head.
- When I read I take all the information and
my brain starts mixing it all together and I think about it, reflect on it, and then put it all together to more fully understand
the author's message.
- Today we are going to make some "reading cookies".
- As I read we are going to take bits
and pieces of information and we are going to write them on sticky notes. Remember that we are recording important information.
- When
we are all done we are going to take all our thinking and put it together and see what wonderful things have happened to our
thinking.
- You might want to record thinking on cookie shaped pieces of paper instead of post it notes.
- You
might also want to share a cookie snack with the kids at the end of the lesson.
