Mini Lesson Plan: The Recess Queen Book

The mini lesson plan introduces the book "The Recess Queen" to students. The objective is for students to comprehend the story, compare and contrast the two main characters, and create a Venn diagram. The teacher will do a 25-30 minute read aloud of the book, asking questions before, during, and after reading. Students will be asked to think about how the characters are similar and different. After reading, the class will create a Venn diagram comparing the two characters, and then students will make their own individual Venn diagrams.

Procedure:

Questioning and Teaching


Strategies:
Before the read aloud
Ask the students to
think about the
characters during the
read aloud and think
about how they are
similar and different.

1. Introduce lesson, explain objective.


Introduce the book
Before reading the book, I asked the students
to think about the characters we are going to
read about and how they are similar and
different.
I asked the students what compare and
contrast to make sure they knew the
definitions of compare (similarities) and
contrast (differences).
2. Demonstrate objective (model); reference
book as needed, provide examples (e.g.,
visuals, demonstrations for objective).

3. Ask questions, stimulate discussion where


students also ask questions and share with
peers. Provide feedback.
Throughout the read aloud, I paused and
asked questions about how each character is.

4.
Asked questions after the read aloud.

5. Evaluate student understanding of the


objective.
Created a Venn Diagram as a class
Used the two characters: Mean Jean and
Katie Sue
After, the students went back to their seats
and created their own Venn Diagram filling it
with details and/or characterizations they
wanted to describe and compare the two
characters.
