It’s the holidays at your house, which means your mom tells you she needs you to grab the decorations from the attic. After all, you’re the only one who can easily slide through the small little door in the ceiling. And you actually enjoy climbing ladders.

So you climb up and dig around the attic, turning over old lampshades and dusty boxes in search of the decorations. Then–aha! A shiny bin in the back catches your eye! It’s a little far out of reach, and you stretch your hand a little further, balancing on your tiptoes, almost there…

Then, CRASH! Books and sheet music, mildewy coats and bedsheets all come falling down, along with…a journal? Whose could it be? And how old is it?

You pick it up and dust off the cover…

Due Date:

Objective: Create a journal entry that expresses another person’s POV, either historical or recent.

Jak na to, jak si vést deník v podkroví

Začleňte primární zdrojové materiály k inspiraci autentických zápisů do deníku

Sbírej dopisy, fotografie nebo artefakty související s obdobím nebo pozadím vámi zvoleného charakteru. Ukázání studentům skutečných příkladů prohlubuje porozumění a přidává realismus do psaní do deníku.

Modelujte společně s třídou zápis do deníku

Napište vzorový zápis na tabuli, při tom nahlas uvažujte o volbě slov a emocích. To pomáhá studentům pochopit, jak zachytit jedinečný hlas a perspektivu.

Usnadněte zpětnou vazbu od vrstevníků na návrhy deníků

Propojte studenty, aby si vyměňovali zápisy a navrhovali vylepšení hlasu, detailů a srozumitelnosti. Zpětná vazba od vrstevníků podporuje reflexi a zlepšení v podpůrném prostředí.

Použijte grafické organizéry k uspořádání nápadů před psaním

Poskytněte organizéry, které pomáhají studentům naplánovat prostředí deníku, pocity postav a časovou osu. Nástroje pro předpsaní zajišťují, že studenti zůstanou soustředění a organizovaní.

Podporujte kreativní ozdoby, které deníky oživí

Vyzvěte studenty, aby přidali skici, falešné artefakty nebo digitickou grafiku. Kreativní doteky činí každý deník jedinečným a ukazují porozumění pohledu na věc.
