1. Using exit tickets to guide lesson planning

2. To understand how to write a two-layered explanation.
students engage in a ‘surface’ (what new things does the evidence tell us about the story?) and ‘deep’ (why did the author choose to use the language that they did?) analysis of the evidence.

3. I can write using surface and deep analysis in my explanation.
EXIT TICKET: Choose another quotation and write a surface and deep explanation of what this tells us about Edmund’s character
Surface:
Deep:

4. Exit ticket example
Mark with a code. Marking all exit tickets took 8 minutes:
Got both shallow and deep right
Got shallow right. Needs more help with deep.
Got deep right. Needs more help with shallow.
Needs more help with both.

5. DIRT TIME TASK
1: you did everything perfectly. Practice your excellent skills again.
‘Their branching horns were gilded and shone like something on fire when the sunrise caught them.’
Surface: The adjective ‘gilded’ shows that the witch’s reindeer have gold-plated horns. This shows her wealth and power in Narnia, and that she must be a very important person.
Deep: The phrase ‘shone like something on fire’ shows that the author did not just want the reader to see her as wealth. The use of fire might show her as a dangerous character, possibly even as someone devilish or hellish.
2: You need to work on deep analysis. Make sure you think about the reasons why the author chose to use that language.
3: You need to work on shallow analysis. Make sure you think about what new things we learn about the story from the quotation.
4: You need work on both surface and deep. Read 2 and 3 and have another go.
