Simple quiz
Differentiated strategies
Based on the results of the simple quiz at the end of the pre-assessment, the students will be divided into 3 groups
Group 2:
12 students who have some knowledge on the topic but need to develop higher-order thinking skills
The students will work in 3 small groups to answer the questions from a worksheet designed to understand the themes and vocabulary of the poetry.
Students will write their own poetry.
Group 1:
5 students who answered most of the questions correct on the pre-assessment
The students will read several poems of Robert Frost and discuss the content using several guided questions.
Students will write their own poetry.
Group 3:
5 students who appear to have limited knowledge of the topic.
For students who are struggling with English language acquisition:
Students will read a simple short poem and find specific vocabulary words that correspond to flashcards with a translation and definition. After all of the words have been found, students will quiz each other on the meanings of the words. Students will listen to a recording of the poem and practice saying it out loud.
For students who need to be tested for special needs: These students will be assigned a special job. They will be class reporters, moving from group to group with a list of questions to ask, such as, “How is your project coming along?” “What is your poem about?” “Are you having any difficulties?” They will take notes and report to the teacher.
