AL SOL #15) The students will name the author and illustrator of a text and define the role of each in presenting the ideas or information in a text. [RI.K.6]

Objective: Given a list of 10 different authors and illustrators’ names, students will match the book to the correct author and illustrator of each book with 8/10 matched correctly.

Character/Biblical Principle:

Characters that will focus on for the concept of authors and Illustrators for this lesson will be the authors of each book in the Bible. Student will learn that all book are written by someone with a story to tell and this person is an author. Our connecting concept for biblical principle will be using the morals that are shown in the stories in relationship to the right things that God look for us to do. The authors and illustrators of storybooks teaches students that no matter what happen to you there is an ending to the story. Just as many verses in the Bible teaches us that God is good. Psalm 73:1, Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart (Holy Bible, NIV). The use of the Bible with the use of storybooks will help the student to focus on modern and the common good.

Materials/Technology Integration:

Materials: Paper, pencil, storybooks, book covers, sentence strips, computer, smartboard, and Bible

Each listed material will be use to conduct the listed activities stated on the lesson plan. Some items will be use more than once. Paper and pencil for creating a list, storybooks and Bible for identifying authors and illustrators, sentence strips to put names for game on, computer and smartboard for visional use with story and illustrator interview on line.

Technology will be integrated in to the lesson with the interactive SmartBoard, it will be used for student to hear a story read by a live person. There will a discussion about the author and illustrator and what are they convening through the story and pictures in the book. http://www.storylineonline.net/kiss-missed/ (storylineonline.net). This will be benefit the student by giving them a visional look at how words and pictures created by an author and illustrator are read by other people. The Computers will be used to listen to an illustrator demonstrate how to create an illustration when working on a storybook this will also give the student a chance to see that illustrators can be authors as well. https://youtu.be/m3oUFXq6Msc ,(youtube.com).
