Lesson Plan

Writing Fix: Moving Through a Machine

Curated by ACT

After enjoying chapter 3 from Robert McCloskey's classic chapter book Homer Price young scholars will work together to expand upon McCloskey's description of how the donut-making machine works. Focusing on a variety of transitions, students will build a class paragraph that shows even more details than the original book. Then, inspired by the class paragraph, individuals or pairs of young scholars will create an original description of food moving through an imaginary machine they dream up.
