Edel 302-301 Lesson Plan

The lesson aims to teach 1st grade students to identify words in stories that suggest feelings or emotions.

For each story, the teacher will have students identify which emotions characters are feeling and what words indicate this. To assess understanding, students will partner up and explain to each other how characters in The Giving Tree are feeling based on word clues. The lesson introduces key vocabulary and builds on prior knowledge of common facial expressions for happy, sad, and scared emotions.

Lesson Plan Details:


Lesson Introduction - “Before”: I will get 6 students and take them into the hallway. I will explain to them what we are doing. We will
be reading these stories today. In each of them, the characters are either happy, sad, or scared. We have to try to figure out what words in
the books tell us which emotion the characters are feeling. But first, I want you all to show me what it looks like when someone is sad.
The students should respond with sad faces, “puppy dog” faces, fake crying, etc. Okay, what does it look like when someone is happy?
The students should respond with big smiles, cheering, clapping, jumping up and down, etc. Lastly, what does it look like when someone
is scared? They should respond with gasps, covering their eyes, whisper yelling, etc. Okay. Now I am going to read The Too-Scary Story
to you all. I will then read the book and stop when necessary- asking what words or phrases tell us how the character is feeling.
Learning Activities - “During”: Then, I will give each student a copy of Have You Filled a Bucket Today? And ask them to read it
silently. I will read it too, to be prepared for discussion. Then we will discuss each page at a time, asking them if they know how the
character feels and what proves that they feel that way. I will have talks with them periodically through this lesson about what they would
do differently if they were in the situation that the characters are in. I will make sure they know that it is okay to feel these emotions, and
that they never last forever.

Closure - “After”: I will then tell the students to split into pairs and read the book The Giving Tree. They can take turns reading, one can
read to the other, they can take turns reading by page, or whatever they prefer. This part of the lesson is flexible. Then I will go to each
group and have them explain to me how the characters are feeling and how they know. This is when I will use my checklist to check for
understanding.
Extension: We could potentially read another book and examine it. Or we could switch it up and do an emotion coloring sheet. Each
emotion would need colored a specific color and this would also show understanding of facial expressions.
