Materials Needed

Introduction (5 Minutes)

  1. Hook: Begin with a brief discussion about what students think a "main idea" is. Write their responses on the whiteboard.
  2. Objective Overview: Explain to students that today they will learn how to identify the main idea and supporting details in a story.

Direct Instruction (10 Minutes)

  1. Read Aloud: Read the selected short story aloud to the class. Ensure clear pronunciation and expression to engage students.

  2. Modeling:

    • After reading, demonstrate how to identify the main idea of the story. Ask, "What is the story mostly about?"
    • Use the whiteboard to write down the main idea.
    • Next, ask the class for supporting details and list them below the main idea on the board.

Guided Practice (10 Minutes)

  1. Group Activity:

    • Divide the students into small groups and provide each group with a different short paragraph.
    • Instruct them to identify the main idea and at least two details from their text using a graphic organizer.
    • Circulate around the room to assist and provide feedback.

  2. Sharing:

    • After 5 minutes, gather the groups and ask them to share their main ideas and details with the class.

Independent Practice (5 Minutes)

  1. Worksheet Completion:
    • Distribute a worksheet with a new short text and guiding questions that prompt students to identify the main idea and supporting details on their own.
    • Encourage students to write a short summary of the text in their own words at the end of the worksheet.

Closing (5 Minutes)

  1. Review Key Concepts:

    • Quickly go over what the main idea is and why it's important.
    • Ask students to share any connections they made between the text and their own experiences.

  2. Exit Ticket:

    • Give each student a sticky note and ask them to write down one thing they learned about main ideas. Collect these as they leave.
