Activities

What will the teacher do?

1. Show pictures of each of the animals featured in the read aloud book Who has this tail by Laura Hulbert (Spider monkey, rattlesnake, shark, gerbil, horse, scorpion, peacock, arctic fox, beaver.) 2. As the LMS shows each picture, ask the class if they can identify that particular animal— have the group speak the name of each animal. (You may supply names of unfamiliar animals) Set aside pictures from eyesight of students. 3. Show students the front cover of the book and ask them if they can predict what the book is going to be about just from the picture on the cover. 4. a. Read aloud the title of the story and the authors name. b. Explain/ review the job/role of the author and the illustrator. c. Ask the students to say the title of the book aloud with you. 5. Ask if the title of the book helped give them a clue about what the book might be about. (Take answers but don’t give away answer) 6. Turn to first page and ask “What is this?” Begin reading aloud: “Who has this tail?” So we know this is a tail because the book gave us a clue—but who do you think it belongs to?—Let students make predictions ---“Lets see if you

Created 07/03/2013 Collaborative Planning Organizer are correct-- “How do you think this animals tail feels? Continue the process with each animal. 7. After completion of book, facilitate the student activities listed below.

What will the student do?

1. After participating in a read-aloud and discussion of the book, the student will participate in a group matching game where they are given either a body or a tail and must find its mate among their class. When they find their mate, they are to sit together. 2. After matching body and tail, the group will be asked to sort/group using various criteria such as: Smallest to largest animal, smallest to largest tail, by color etc. 3. Students will be asked to find the offspring that matches their animal as a group. Each group should discuss and report to the class one thing that is alike and one thing that is different between the parent animal and its offspring.

Rationale for the activity: Students will be given the opportunity to apply prior knowledge about animals to construct new knowledge. They will also be able to make connections from the content area (Science) to real life. Working with a read-aloud by the LMS helps build background knowledge and introduce vocabulary that will benefit them later on their road to becoming independent readers.
