Objective: I can write a reflection about the theme of segregation as it occurs in the arrest scene from the movie by writing notes and completing the sentence stem. Also, I can add inferences to my SSR book by following the steps of 4-Column Inference Journal.
BW: Each student will paraphrase this quote in one or two sentences: “When The Help is used as an educational resource, the terror-filled realities of the time are glossed over or omitted in favor of a heartwarming–and entirely fictional–idea that racial equality came about because white people realized their unfairness and did something about it.”
Activities:
- Reflection: Students will retell the events of the arrest scene by applying two or three notes from the replay.
- Video: Students will take note on the next segment of the movie.
- Share Out: Is the scene “upsetting” enough? Explain.
- SSR: Students will add inferences to their 4-Column journals.
- Reminder: For those students who did not write the Final Draft of the smartphone essay, a last chance for make-up will occur after school on Thursday(1/10) from 2:20 until 3:15 pm. There have been 5 or more opportunities for this make-up before the holiday break, so this will be the last one.
