Instructional Input
What knowledge is required for you to impart to students in order for them to achieve the
objective or purpose?
Students will be given homework before this activity to gain background knowledge.
They will be asked to talk to their family members about the history of their name.
Asking questions such as;
o What does my name mean?
o What language is it?
o Was I named after anyone special?

Guided and Independent Practice
If relevant, what activities will the students engage in under close teacher monitoring and
direction? What activities will the students engage in without teacher supervision?
The students will be under close teacher monitoring and direction in the beginning of the
lesson while the teacher asks questions before and during the reading. The teacher will
then listen as the students answer their questions.
The students will also be under close teacher monitoring and direction after the teacher
has finished the read aloud, and is asking students to participate in a discussion of the
read aloud.
After reading the book, the students will be under little teacher supervision as they create
their own cultural name stamp. The teacher will circulate around the room asking
questions such as;
o What does you name mean?
o How does it relate to your culture?
o How does it relate to your family heritage?
o Does it make you feel special?
Closure
How will you bring the lesson to close? Are there key points of learning you need to review,
clarify, or check? Closure may not be synonymous to an ending point of learning.
To close this activity, the students will return to the carpet, and they will be given the
chance to share their name stamp with the whole class. By allowing an extended amount
of share time, the students in the class will be able to learn about their classmates
heritage a little bit better.
