Instructional Procedures:
A. Pre-Activities
(10 Minutes)
·
Activate
students’ prior knowledge and review
common greeting card characteristics
·
Explain
that people send greeting cards for many reasons. Share a greeting card sent to
me with the class—who sent it, why, how I felt. Ask students to think about a
time they sent or received a greeting card. TURN AND TALK with a partner.
o
Why
did you send/receive the card?
o
How
did you feel?
o
Describe
the card.
·
Share
a few greeting cards with the class (birthday, thank you, religious events).
Discuss why these cards might be sent.
·
Revisit
the times students have sent/received a card. Start recording reasons on a
chart labeled “TYPES OF GREETING CARDS”
·
Explain
that students will now act as “greeting card detectives”. They will have a
stack of cards to sort in their investigative groups.
B. Whilst Activities (60 Minutes)
·
Instruct
students to take a few minutes to read/look at the cards. Then have them sort
cards into categories. Circulate the room to assist and keep students on task.
·
Explain
that students will now create their own greeting cards using the techniques
they have explored. Display the charts previously created.
·
Hand
out and review the Creating a Greeting Card worksheet. Go over each point to
help students establish a purpose for writing.
·
Allow
students to draft the words of their card in their journal. Edit with students
and allow them to revise.

Provide
blank greeting cards and supplies for students to create a final version of
their card.
C. End of Activities (10 Minutes)

Share
student work/allow students to demonstrate reading fluency
·
Encourage
students to read their cards in a manner that is appropriate to the message
they are sending to build oral reading fluency.
·
Allow
students to share with multiple peers and engage them in 2-3 rounds of
“Turn-and-Talk”. Model for them how to provide positive feedback to peers.
·
Formative assessment: Ask students to describe
their prior experiences with greeting cards, adding student data to a
group-created chart. Observe students’ interactions in small groups with
sorting activity. Informally assess their contributions to the class-created
chart of card characteristics.

Summative assessment: Use group-created
recording sheets to check for students’ identification of language conventions
as described. Collect and assess students’ greeting cards using a rubric.
