These questions will be posted in our Edmodo class one question at a time. Having a discussion through group chat allows all students to have a voice. This is a difficult topic in which some students don't speak up. Sometimes, through typing, students have more input.

Face to face instruction will be watching the video together and reading the article. The focus will be on the words to know and the purpose setting of the lesson - making connections.

3 skill Focus Writing dialogue (W.3.3b)
Objective: Students will write dialogue to show a character’s response to a bullying situation.
discussion: Pose the following discussion questions. • Isabella says that “20 seconds of courage” can make a huge
difference to someone who is being bullied. Do you agree or disagree? Why?
• Based on the article, what is the difference between a
bystander and an upstander? Give examples of things each of them might say or do in a bullying situation.
direct instruction: State the lesson’s objective. Tell students that fiction writers make their dialogue come alive by putting themselves in the characters’ shoes and imagining their reactions. Model the strategy.
Practice: On page T3, students will write the dialogue for an upstander named Denise. Instruct them to follow the notes in the margin of the page to help them construct her responses.
share: Have students read or act out their dialogues in small groups. Using lines from the students’ dialogues, create a list of phrases that an upstander can use in a bullying situation.
extension: Have students write a complete story that incorporates the dialogue on page T3.

Create a VolcanoIn this week’s issue, you read about a volcano in Hawaii named Kilauea. When you think of a volcano erupting, you may imagine a huge fiery explosion. But a shield volcano—like Kilauea—is a type of volcano that erupts slowly. The experiment below teaches you how to create a “shield volcano.” Read the experiment, then answer the questions below.
StepS1. With a pencil, carefully punch a small hole in the center of the
index card. The hole represents the volcano’s vent (opening).
2. Mix the plaster of Paris with the water in the baggie. Add a few drops of food coloring. The mixture should be thick and gooey. It represents lava.
3. Seal the baggie, then cut one of its corners to make a small hole.
4. Partner A should hold the index card.
5. Partner B should place the hole in the baggie right under the hole in the card. He or she should then squeeze the bag gently, letting about half of the mixture ooze out of the hole in the index card.
6. When the mixture hardens, switch roles and repeat steps 4 and 5. (you may have to reopen the hole if the plaster clogs it.)
