Lesson 42 Making Predictions Purpose To infer and predict based on textual evidence To synthesize information about a character in order to write from the character’s point of view
Character ChartVocabulary • Define the term characterization in your TKAMB packet (page 376) • Take a few minutes and fill out anymore information in your packet about the characters we met in chapters 4 & 5
Predict and Annotate • Annotate. Annotating a text is important to increase comprehension. As you read, annotate the text on a separate sheet of paper. Note any important connections or oddities you see; write down anything you think is important! • As you look over chapters 4 & 5, record details on page 375about the growing relationship between Boo and the children, and predict what you think is likely to happen. Then, check these predictions as you go. • After you annotate and fill in the chart on page 375, come up with 2 questions for discussion. • Author and Me – You will begin this question with the phrase “Why do you think the author….” • Theme – In this type of question you will ask a question that specifically ties to one of the book’s themes. • From the Text – In this type of question you will reference a specific line or paragraph or scene from the book and ask a question based on that excerpt. • Pulling It Together – In this type of question you will juxtapose two different parts of the book and ask a question based on their correlation. • Other – Come up with any open-ended question (a question that cannot be answered in one word) based on something you found significant or something you were unsure of.
More Predictions • What do you know about terms associated with characterization, with how characters are developed and how they function? Think-Pair-Share • Four Methods of Character Development • What characters do • What they say • What they look like • What other characters say about them • Other terms related to characterization • Primary and secondary characters • Foil • Protagonist • Main character • Major and minor characters • Round and flat characters
Writing Prompt • Write a diary entry in Boo’s voice (use first-person point of view) commenting on the children’s latest pranks. Be sure to communicate Boo’s attitude toward the children through the diction and imagery you use to write about them. Think about how you could use the subjunctive mood to begin your diary entry; for example, “If I could talk to jem and Scout, I would..”
ExitReading • We will now read chapters 6-7 in preparation for class tomorrow.
