Throughout today's lesson we practiced inferencing and sequencing. Together we read "When Dinosaurs Get Mad" with a focus on how each dinosaurs' behaviors impacted their environment, their experience, and those around them. We discussed the different helpful strategies that the Dinosaurs used at the end of the book, and practiced each strategy together - counting to 10, deep breaths, cleaning up after we make a mess, and apologizing. We discussed how the expressions of characters changed based on behavior and feelings. We also reviewed days of the week and numbers 1 - 15 as they related to days of the week. This included a number search, naming with cues, and naming with no cues. We also reviewed different farm animals, equipment, and people.
Work on creating a script to match to a story board. Research how to narrate, show action, and place dialogue while matching to what animation may be occurring. Does the story match what is expected to happen based on the picture? Is it better to draw what will happen and then write or write and then illustrate?
Review the types of analogies and look at examples of analogy pairs. Decide what type of analogy each one is. Complete sheet with analogies, again deciding which types they are.
Introduce what analogies are and how they are able to assist with vocabulary understanding. Use activity to introduce the types of analogies and what sentence best completes each type. If time, continue story board.
Take what has been worked on with the story recently and decide what was researched can continue to develop it. Use what was learned about if AI is assisting or not and if it is useful in any way.
Research on how to transition a story line to a written and illustrated creation. Does AI assist or does it hinder the creativity of the author/illustrator? Why is it good/bad?
Complete the comic book story board and make any final edits as needed. Show parts where there are various uses of the figurative language we have been reviewing. Explain how the illustrations relate to the action, including the background scenery.
Continue to write and illustrate the story. Use sharpies today to outline and color in the characters. If needed, use other comic books to inspire setup of the boxes for the best layout on each page. Check the dialogue for correct spelling and grammar before rewriting in thin sharpie.
