Lesson Plan

Establishing Routines for Discussing A Long Walk to Water (Chapter 6)

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Middle schoolers use a reader's dictionary to locate words they do not know in chapter 6 of A Long Walk to Water. They then turn attention to gist and work on a Salva/Nya anchor chart to record what happens to the characters. Finally, they add more to the Survival Anchor Chart they began in lesson plan one.
