    Hi Katie,

    Awesome creation of the backward design! How would you apply this to the age group you are getting you degree in? I am doing 7-12 certification with a 5-6 extension!

      Hi Julie, Thank you so much for the feedback!

      I am getting my certification in Childhood, grades 1-6. I would apply this by having the students review vocabulary words from the text, in addition to compare and contrast characters to understand different character traits. I would also have students identify the point of view, and what message the author is working to convey. The learning activities will change based on the grade.

    Hi, Katie -
    Nice job on your UbD Stage 1 assignment!
    In bullet 2 of your Students Will Know section, it sounds like you're alluding to students being able to use context clues effectively in their reading - especially as you state that in bullet 2 of your Students Will Be Able To section. If that's the case, you might want to use the term 'context clues' in your bullet 2 description under Students Will Know. That way, both you and the students are on the same page when it comes to your teaching language.
    Keep up the great work!
    - Faith G.
