Presentation transcript:

Bellwork Sept. 8, 2015 Copy and answer. Describe your idea of a perfect world. Include as many details as you can think of. -What would it look like? -Who would be included? -What would make it perfect?

Standard/EQ ELAGSE7RI 10: By the end of the year, read and comprehend literary nonfiction in grades 6-8 text complexity band proficiency with scaffolding as needed at the high end of the range. EQ: What is a utopian/dystopian society?

Hook: Your perspective. “There’s nothing we can do. It’s always been this way. Before me, before you, before the ones who came before you. Back and back and back.” Write the quote above. Explain what it means to you.

Mini-Lesson Use the following slide to inspire discussion as to what should be considered when designing a perfect world. Students may identify additional components that are not included on this particular slide. Divide students into small groups which will function as "committees" charged with designing one component of a perfect world. Items on dark backgrounds on the flow chart are the suggested committees. Items on light backgrounds are areas to be considered as parts of larger concepts (i.e., laws and punishment are part of the judicial system while marriage and children are part of the family unit). Provide each "committee" with chart paper and markers on which to write their suggestions. Have one student from each group act as a spokesperson to present the suggestions of each "committee." Provide time for questions and comments after each committee makes its presentation. Display the charts in the classroom and help students realize if they really were designing a perfect society, it may be necessary to forfeit some rights and privileges we currently enjoy.
