Academic Choice: Comprehending & Retelling a Story
Retell a fairy tale including characters setting and events.
On day one of this two-day lesson, students in Ms. Porfirio's 1st grade class review the important elements of retelling a story, including characters, setting, and key events. On day two, they demonstrate their understanding of these elements by retelling "Goldilocks" using a learning style they've selected (e.g., drawing, painting, and building). This academic choice strategy supports differentiated instruction in the classroom.
