III. The Plan Time 5 Motivation (opening/ introduction/ engagement) Components Describe teacher activities AND student activities for each component of the lesson. Include important higher order thinking questions and/or prompts. Have students take out their notebooks at the top of Write in journals about faith and China. the page write faith. Tell them to write for two minutes on faith Jesus and God. Tell them to use descriptive words to describe what they feel and what they know about Jesus. Start a new page and have them write for two minutes about China, things they know about China, interesting facts they've learned, and descriptive words. What did we talk about yesterday? Ask what they remember about poems. Do poems have to rhyme? What makes a poem? What are some poems that they can think of? What is a couplet? Move onto todays topic. Today we will be learning about two kinds of poems: the repeating poem and the haiku. Start PowerPoint. Begin with repeating poems talk about how repeating poems say something and at the end of each verse they repeat the same thing. Repeating poems dont have to rhyme, but at the end of the line it repeats the same phrase. Move to haiku. Students should know how to Count the number of syllables in a word. Haikus are made Answer questions

Have students start writing their poems about faith and China.

Work quietly writing poems about faith and China.

Closure (conclusion, culmination, wrap-up)
