This whales reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Whales Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Life Science / Informational Reading Primary Topic: Whales as mammals, feeding types, fossils, human impacts Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best Whales are mammals that breathe air with lungs through blowholes , so they must surface as part of everyday life. Whales can have two different feeding tools : baleen plates that strain food like krill, or sharp teeth used to grab fish or squid. Fossils provide evidence that early whale relatives were land mammals and changed over millions of years to live in the ocean. Human activity affects whales today (fishing gear tangles, ships strike, and loud noise can fill the water where whales communicate), and scientists use tracking tools to help protect them. Learning Goals Students will explain why whales rise to the surface using details about breathing and blowholes. Students will compare how baleen whales and toothed whales get food, using evidence from the text. Students will describe what fossils show about where whales came from long ago. Students will identify one modern problem that can make whale communication harder, based on the passage. Students will describe at least one way scientists track whales to protect them, using details from the text. Key Vocabulary From the Text blowholes — nostrils on top of a whale’s head. baleen — mouth plates that strain tiny food from water. krill — tiny sea creatures baleen whales hold onto. streamlined — shaped to move smoothly through water. fossils — old remains in rock that give clues.

Self-Evaluation and Reflection Tool: Back-to-School Bellringers
ELA, Grade 6, 7, 8, Teacher Tools, Assessments
The Self-Evaluation and Reflection Tool: Back-to-School Bellringers for Middle School English Language Arts is an ideal formative assessment to carry out with your students during the initial two weeks of school, while you're checking attendance. Each day, students are required to complete a brief survey consisting of 5-8 questions, followed by a daily self-reflection question, over eight days. For convenience, each page includes two identical surveys, facilitating easy duplication. The surveys in this Self-Evaluation and Reflection Tool: Back-to-School Bellringers cover a range of topics such as Time Management, Concentration and Memory, Note-taking, Test-taking, Attitude and Motivation, Active Reading, and Writing. The brief surveys included encourage students to reflect on their various habits, practices, and skills with first-person affirmations, like keeping track of tasks by noting them in a planner, studying in a distraction-free environment, annotating texts while reading, creating study aids like flashcards for tests, paying attention to their thoughts during reading, seeking help when needed, re-reading to comprehend their reading, and reviewing their writing for grammatical errors. They can respond with either Always, Usually, Sometimes, or Never. Each survey ends with a consistent self-reflection question: "Choose one statement from the survey where you did not mark 'Always' and reflect upon it. What could you change?" The surveys may be used as formative assessments to inform further instruction. They can also be used in interactive notebooks for students to compare beginning to end of the year responses and how they might have changed. This resource pairs nicely with my lesson plan: Academic Progress and Citizenship for Middle School Students: Goals and Reflections. In this lesson plan, students learn how to set attainable academic and citizenship goals for each grading period. At the end of the grading period, they reflect on their goals, their successes, their challenges, and what they did to overcome them. Then they repeat the process for each grading period. At the end of the year, they reflect on their experience with setting goals for the year.
