This lesson remixes a lesson entitled Teach Design: Portkey (developed by Austin Meyer) by employing it as an anticipatory activity for an instructional unit on Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451." Students follow the steps outlined in the original lesson and then return back to this activity frequently during their reading of the unit text in order to deepen their understanding of the unit text and to reinforce the author's message concerning the power of stories in our lives.

0.0 stars

In this lesson, students work in groups of 3-4 students to analyze their paired novella in order to deepen their understanding of the text. Each student takes on a specific role - leader, skeptic, or scribe in order to form an assertion, support that assertion with evidence, and refine their assertion in order to craft a clear, specific argument. In addition to providing a collaborative, multi-modal analysis experience, this lesson also incorporates movement and reflection and is easily adaptable to any paired text or close-reading skill.
