Classroom environment:
The students are all seated in tables and there are 4-5 students at each table. There is a Smart Board
located at the front of the classroom that is connected to an overhead projector. There is also an Elmo
projector that is connected to the computer and can display on the Smart Board. Each student has a
designated iPad where they complete multiple assignments throughout the day.

Success Criteria
Students are able to work
cooperatively with the members
at their table and correctly match
each vocabulary word with its
definition in 2 minutes.
Assessment Strategy
Students will be assessed by their
ability to match the word with
each definition. (Each teams
papers are color-coded). At the
end of the activity, the groups will
be given an opportunity to change
their answer.

Guided Instruction (We do it)
Lets continue reading! Once we get to something that we are able to compare, raise your hand and we will
take a closer look.
Read page 617. Ask students to clarify what wrasses are and why planula need to look out for them.
Read page 618 and 619.
What did the author mainly discuss on page 618? What about page 619? What important details about crests
did the author discuss? What important details do we know about lagoons? Do crests and lagoons have
anything in common?
During this discussion, use the sticks to randomly call on students to answer questions.

Modification/accommodations:
Call on a struggling learner to answer a question. Give students adequate amounts of time to think before
calling on someone.
Collaborative/Cooperative (You do it together)
As tables, read the remaining pages of the main selection. ***This can be completed in the afternoon as well.
Once you find something that can be compared and contrasted, fill out a Venn Diagram to organize
information. Not every page is going to have something that you can compare and contrast. As you read
about the planulas journey, talk with the members of your team about the characteristics of the
environments that the creatures are travelling through.

***The section can be completed in the afternoon, or the following morning.
Once you get to the end of the story, answer the following questions:

How is the coral reef that lives in dirty water different from the coral reef that lives in clean water? Explain by
comparing and contrasting.
How do the animals and plants in the coral reef depend on each other? How are they connected?
Summative Assessment:
Students are able to compare and contrast different elements that exist in a coral reef. They are also able to
reflect on how all of these creatures and organisms are connected to each other.

Modification/accommodations:
Provide struggling learners and ELL students with necessary guidance and assistance.
Closure/Review of walk-aways, vocabulary, and essential questions
Today we looked at the similarities and differences of different things found in a coral reef! We also used a
Venn Diagram to organize our thoughts. How did comparing and contrasting while reading help you
understand the story? How do the animals and plants in the coral reef depend on each other?
