Mini Lesson:
I will introduce the word Brainstorming. I will tell students that they will receive a
worksheet that will help them organize their ideas for their article. This will be a time
for students to put their research into a web diagram. I will show what a web diagram
looks like and how the bubbles build off of each other as they work their way through
the paper. I will tell them that they will need the following:
-A beginning sentence that draws in the reader
-A sentence that tells about their topic
-Sentences that support your facts and data
-Sentences that flow together and stay on topic
-A closing sentence that does not introduce anything new but recaps everything that they
have talked about without being a run on sentence.
Students will practice in their journals by picking a topic (family, friends, sports) and
will create a web diagram in their journal before they do their topic for their article.
Then students will be given time in class (15-20 min) to fill out their brainstorming
worksheet and getting it checked with me.
The students articles are to be 5-7 sentences; I want them to focus on getting one idea
across with many supporting sentences.
