  1. Story Mapping Gradual Release Plan on Summary Writing

  2. Shared Writing • As a full class, we co-created summary paragraphs about Prince Edward’s Royal tour to British North America. • These paragraphs were posted on our homework website. • Students are encouraged to use these exact paragraphs in their “Artistic Representation” of his journey. • The co-created and posted paragraphs are: Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island

  3. Paired Writing • Students worked in pairs to read/write a summary on the Prince’s journey to Canada East. • Students combined their active listening skills with graphic organizers to compose a summary paragraph • Pairs joined another group of pairs to compose their “ultimate summary” on chart paper • These ultimate summaries were posted around the room, for students to and compose a good copy, based on the gallery versions

  4. Individual Writing • Students are to independently read and complete a graphic organizer based on the Prince’s journey to Canada West. • Paragraphs will be completed in-class and submitted for descriptive feedback. • Good copies will be completed for the creative assignment. • THIS IS THE END OF THE PRINCE’S JOURNEY • However…with our imaginary “steerable airship” we will explore Western North America (even though it is NOT recorder that anyone actually made such a trip)

  5. Western North America Summaries • For each of these territories/settlements, use the journalists questions, to write summaries. • Who – inhabited the land? • What – did the people do (how did they make their living)? • Where – did the populations settle (near what geographical landscapes)? • When – did key events in this territory/settlement happen? • Why – was this land valuable? • How – did the population feel about the Europeans?

  6. Western North America – Journalist Questions Framework

  7. Creative Component • Use the summary paragraphs from both Prince Edward’s real and “imagined” tour of North America to create a visual representation of the major industries/trade, people, issues and conflicts involved in the regions that make up today’s Canada. • (I.E. a map of British North America (i.e. p 5), Prezi/Power Point/computer-based visual (hard copy of paragraphs required), a 12 frame story board, etc.)

  8. Essential Components for Assessment • Summary Paragraphs, in order of the tour (both real and imagined), indicating an east – west direction of travel • Distinct paragraphs strictly relating the key informational points of each colony/territory (as indicated on the graphic organizers) • A visual per colony/territory representing one of the following: key industries/trade, people, perceptions, issues and conflicts (either landscape texturing/illustrations on a map, imagined scenarios/images, found images)
