Instructional Ideas

  • Ask a class member to prepare a masterful reading of the section of the study under study

Classroom Considerations

  • The ninth in a 13-lesson unit that uses Ethan Canin’s short story “The Palace Thief” as an anchor text
  • In addition to the in-class readings, class members are also responsible for an out-of-class Accountable Independent Reading (AIR) assignment

Pros

  • The 10-page resource includes the plan, a list of the common Core standards addressed by the lesson, discussion questions with model responses, a vocabulary list, and a homework assignment

Cons

  • None
