Description
Here's a low prep close reading lesson to re-energize your class 1 to 2 days in length! This biography (formatted like a newspaper) about the Tony, Grammy, Emmy and Oscar winner Viola Davis, is suitable for middle and high school students. Student study her life, education, triumphs and failures as well as her journey to Broadway and movies.
It and can be used as a stand alone lesson or with other biographies. Each lesson in the Places Please series is tailored to the strengths of that particular artist. Take a week and study several theater artists or assign different ones as part of a larger project.
The Teacher will need access to the Youtube.com and the students to the internet.
Need a quick emergency lesson plan? Or one for a substitute? This is part of a bundle.
How do I use this product in my classroom? If I were you, I'd introduce the artist with several clips about the artist which I've provided. Next, hand out the questions sheets and oversee their research. Finally, I'd assign the one pager note taking to culminate the learning.
