Standard and EQ
Standards:

7-RL.3 - Analyze how particular elements of a story or drama interact (e.g., how setting shapes the characters or plot).
Essential Question:
How do we annotate the text to analyze falling action
and resolution in
a short story?Slide3
Past LearningSlide4
Present Learning
Why are we learning to annotate?
For PASS Testing
You will be asked to Annotate your 8

Skill needed for High School and College!Slide5
Annotating:Trying another strategy
When we read, we QUESTION what is happening in the story.
In Rogue Wave for example:
Will a boat come to their rescue?
Will Scoot be able to find the strength to escape without Sully’s help?
As you read today, find two places in the story where you have a question.
Annotate by putting a “?” next to the text and then ask you’re your question in the margin.Slide6
Example
What did Tucker do to finally be accepted by his peers?Slide7

Falling Action Review
What is
falling action
?
Where do you find
falling action
in a short story?
How do you know when you’ve found the
falling action
?Slide9
Let’s Begin
We know that the climax of the story is when the man is being rescued by Tucker and Richard.
Let’s read on to find the falling action.
With a partner, read lines 166-211. Annotate falling action by underlining and writing in the margins
Work through both conflicts
1. Tucker yearns for acceptance among peers
2. Man’s life is in danger from stormSlide10
In addition…
Remember to try our new questioning strategy today!
Find TWO places in the reading where you can ask a questionSlide11Slide12Slide13
CFU
What was the falling action of both conflicts?
What did YOU find as the most helpful and easiest way to annotate falling action?
Underlining?
Circling?
Writing in the margin?
Where in the story did you have a question?Slide14
Resolution
On your OWN, read lines 212-275
ANNOTATE the resolution of the story by
underlining, circling, or writing in the margins. Again, find 2 places in the text where you can QUESTION the text. ANNOTATE like how I previously modeled.Slide15Slide16Slide17Slide18Slide19
Closure
How do you see annotating being beneficial while reading?
Were you surprised by the resolution of the story?
Is annotating something a reader would want to do EVERY TIME when reading?
