General content:

Detective

1.-Foreshadowing

Look for clues or hints to suggest events that will occur later in the plot and how it contributes to plot development in a text.

2.- Learning Objectives: What should students be able to do at the end of this lesson? Is there alignment with course objectives?

To look for clues in the story that suggest future events and the outcome of the story.

To understand the foreshadowing technique

To relate with peers and work in a group setting

To scan the text.

3.- Instructional Procedures: How will I…?

…gain students’ attention

Discuss the outcome of The Landlady with the class

Tell students to pretend they are detectives investigating this situation

Divide the class into groups of about 4

Tell students to scan the story and search for clues or hints that indicate the ending. And complete a T-chart each, by listing these examples of foreshadowing in the text and tell what they foreshadow. Tell students they should be able to find at least five examples from the text. Remind them that these are the things that might have saved Billy if he would have noticed them. Provide the students with one example on the overhead to get them started. While they work, circulate to make sure students are on the right track.

…recall prior relevant information?

Begin class by asking students if they have ever run into someone accidentally as they rounded the corner of a building. Ask students what might have helped them avoid the collision. In other words, how could they have known someone was there before they actually saw them? (You might hear them talking, whistling, or walking loudly)

2. Ask students to think of a situation in which they might know someone is coming without hearing them first. Elicit from them that if it is sunny and the sun is in the right place, you might see the shadow before you actually see the person. This shadow would hint at the person's presence before the person actually arrived. You see a shadow before you see the person.

Provide students with an example of how foreshadowing works in literature. For example, a gun found under a mattress in chapter two of a novel may foreshadow violence later in the story. Because the gun's presence is established, the violence later in the story is more believable.

5. Ask students to brainstorm a list of movies or T.V. shows that use foreshadowing. Discuss how foreshadowing can build suspense and also make stories more believable by partially preparing us for the outcome. As audience members, we want the foreshadowing to be present but not obvious.

4.- Material Needed: The T-chart

…present new material?

Provide students with the literary definition of foreshadowing: The use of clues or hints to suggest events that will occur later in the plot. Tell them that the clues in the story could be looked at as the shadow of a later event just like the shadow on the sidewalk

5.- Announcements:

There will be homework and will be due next class .The marks will be given the following class.

…elicit performance?

Through previous preparation (defining foreshadowing) and the T chart in group work, the students will be better prepared for understanding the story and the homework.

…assess performance?

Collect paragraphs and assess using the provided rubric. Provide students with appropriate feedback.

…enhance retention? (Homework assignment)
