ELPS Implementation:

ELPS 2.C, 2.D, and 2.G are implemented so that students can actively monitor their comprehension during discussions and allows room for them to seek help when needed. Students reflect on their understanding on content and key terms presented while identifying key concepts as well.

ELPS 3.A, 3.D, 3.E, and 3.J are implemented so that students can build their linguistic needs and be able to properly pronounce and use the key terms in the correct context during class and group/partner discussions. These ELPs are included so that students are able to understand the meaning of key terms and be able to use them to describe pumpkins. These ELPS are included so that students are able to orally respond to the content presented and attain new content such as vocabulary words, their meanings, along with learning the language.

ELPS 4.B and 4.G are implemented so that students are able to understand and demonstrate the proper direction of reading texts and while engaging in group activities which allows them to demonstrate their comprehension of reading texts and the content of the text.

ELPS 5.B is implemented so that students can demonstrate their understanding of key words and their ability to label, draw, identify, and explain the characteristics of pumpkins and their lifecycle.

Materials:

· Projector to play “I Love Pumpkins” video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I884JkS_aFg)

· Small (hand-sized) pumpkins

· Pencil, Colors, Markers, Rulers

· Blank Paper (Student Will create their own Pumpkin Life Cycle)

· Pumpkin Related Vocabulary Sheet

· Parts of a Pumpkin Worksheet

· Lifecycle of a Pumpkin Reading Passage

· Pumpkin Investigation Worksheet

Model Lesson:

To start, the teacher will show the students the video “I Love Pumpkins” on the projector. Once, video has been viewed, the teacher can ask students “What do you think about the video?”; “Do you like/love pumpkins?”; “What stood out to you?”; “What was your favorite part of the video”; or “Any questions or comments about the video?” This will get students to think about the video and why it was shown; and, to think more about pumpkins in general. Next the teacher will ask the students to think of words that come to their minds as they think of pumpkins; the teacher will list the words that students come up with on the board. Then once every student has had a chance to have their word placed on the board; the teacher will then review their words and refer to the “Pumpkin Related Vocabulary” sheet with the students and cover the key terms that are listed that are related to pumpkins. Next, the teacher will then provide each student with a “Parts of the Pumpkin” worksheet. The teacher will then replay the “I Love Pumpkins” video and instruct students to label the parts of a pumpkin on their worksheet as they rewatch the video. Once students have labeled the parts of the pumpkin, the teacher will then provide them with a “Life Cycle of a Pumpkin” passage as they will complete it individually. Once the passage worksheet has been completed students can work with a partner to create a visual of the lifecycle of a pumpkin on the provided blank sheet of paper. Although students are able to work with a partner, each student is responsible for creating their own “Pumpkin Lifecycle” on the blank paper provided using colors and markers. Students will be able to take turns displaying and explaining their pumpkin lifecycle that they created. After all students have completed their drawings of a pumpkin lifecycle, the teacher will give each student a ruler and a tiny or small (hand-sized) pumpkin that they will be observing. Once every student has been given a small pumpkin, they will complete the “Pumpkin Investigation” worksheet. When finished, students will discuss their observations with their partner using key terms. When every student is finished the class will join as a group to discuss their observations as a whole class discussion. Students will be able to use key terms learned to describe pumpkins and their lifecycles.
