Grade 3, Reading Unit 1 Teaching Point: How do we reference a poem? (i.e. line, stanza) (RL.3.5)
Objective • Today, we will learn about how to reference a text in a poem using precise—exact—terms to evidence or support our thinking.
Readers pay attention to the words, thoughts, and actions in a text to grow ideas.
Stanza Line Breaks
Sentence Starters to Reference a Poem • In stanza ____, line___ the poet writes, “…” This makes me think that… • I think the poet is trying to say…My idea is supported in stanza____, line ____ where it says, “…” • There is strong evidence in stanza___, line___ that the poet thinks/believes ____ because it says….So, this makes me think that…
Steps to Reference a Poem • Read the question. • Think about which part of the poem supports my thinking about the question. • Reference parts in the poem using precise terms to support my thinking (this means I will also need to count the lines/stanzas to reference the text.)
Question #1: What is the mood of the narrator in the poem? What’s the evidence? Question #2: How does the narrator in the poem feel about nature? What is the evidence?
Directions • You will work in pairs/small groups. • Read the poem, “Who Has Seen the Wind?” by Christina Rossetti. • Discuss the poem, using the guiding questions you will receive. • Reference parts in the poem by using precise terms to support your thinking (this means you will also need to count the lines/stanzas to reference the text.) • Come to a consensus to answer the question, using precise terms to reference your thinking. Total Time= 8 minutes
Guiding Questions • If no one has seen the wind, does the wind exist? What is the evidence? • How powerful is the wind in this poem? What is the evidence?
