2. Get Started/Drill/Hook- 15 min
What meaningful activity will students complete as soon as they enter the classroom?
Journal #1 (15 minutes)
Write a summary of your chapter. What parts stood out to you? Which parts were confusing? How did Gladwell explain his 3 key points for success in your chapter? How were the study questions? Were they easy to answer? Or hard?
(This connects to past-learning, IE previous night’s homework)

3. Engage/Motivation- 5 min
How will student interest be sparked? Is there prior knowledge that should be tapped? Is there vocabulary that must be cleared? Is there brainstorming that students need to complete before this lesson begins?
1. Let’s Review Gladwell’s 3 Keys to Success:
*Beneficiaries of hidden advantages
*Extraordinary opportunities
*Cultural legacies
This could be a good time to show a short clip or use some props to get the class interested in your chapter.
