The Story of Jumping Mouse, Part I
Choose four students to focus on and record their scores on the Tens
Recording Chart. For this type of informal observation, you should
give a score of zero, five, or ten based on your evaluation of students’
understanding and language use.
0 Emergent understanding and language use
5 Developing understanding and language use
10 Proficient understanding and language use- Have students place Response Cards 4 through 7 on their laps. [You
may wish to focus on a few stories at a time.] Remind students that
these Response Cards are pictures from a folktale. Say a few key
words or phrases from any of the folktales from the past four lessons
(e.g., little kids, thread and needle, old dog, robbers, oni monster,
pheasant, magic frog, jumping, snake) and ask students to hold up
the Response Card that relates to the words you say. - Have students focus on one story and explain to their partner which
parts of the story could happen in real life and which parts of the
story is fantasy. - Give students a Character, Setting, Plot Map and an Image Sheet
(Instructional Master 7B-1). Have them identify the characters they
have met so far from the story. Students can draw or cut and paste
images of the characters onto the first circle. Next, have them identify
the settings of the story. Students can draw or cut and paste images
of the settings onto the second circle. Finally, in the top circle on the
right side of the page, have students draw a picture of an event from
the story.
Note: Students will continue this activity in the next lesson after they
hear the rest of the story. - Have students talk to their partner or with home language peers
about the characters, setting, and plot of the story so far, using the
Character, Setting, Plot Map.
