Kings and Queens: Supplemental Guide 1A | The Royal Family 21Advance Preparation
For the Domain Introduction and Lesson Review, prepare a few pictures
of current kings, queens, and royal families to show students that royalty
still exists today. These pictures can also serve as discussion pieces and
practice for identifying members of a royal family.
For Word Work, provide images or realia of royal objects, such as a royal
orb, scepter, crown, seal, and throne. Help students make the connection
that these items are symbols of royalty and power. In addition, prepare
common symbols that students may see everyday and may be familiar
with such as an American flag, stop sign, no cell phone sign, four-leaf
clover, etc. Briefly discuss what each symbol means.
Note to Teacher
During the End-of-Lesson Check-In, students will have the opportunity to
draw what they have learned. Encourage them to add royal objects to the
picture and to discuss their picture using read-aloud vocabulary.
