Assessment:
Students will have a rough narrative in their writing notebooks.
Day by Day:
● Monday:
○ Students share out “jots” from their notebooks, in which they had written about
choices they have made.
○ Talk about how all choices are not good. Some are mistakes. We’re going to
see what happens when one friend makes a mistake, and the results of that
choice.
○ Read big book Ibis and Jaguar’s Dinner.
○ Students share what mistake was made by Jaguar.
● Wednesday:
○ Revisit Ibis and Jaguar.
■Do you make mistakes? What were the results?
● Students share out.
■What lesson did Jaguar learn? Did Ibis make any mistakes? What lesson
did she learn?
● Have you learned lessons from your mistakes?
■Give kids a chance to “jot” about a mistake they have made. Talk with each
other about that mistake and what you learned.
○ Use back flap from book to model how:
■We make a bad choice
■There is a consequence (result)
■(add) we learn a lesson and make a better choice next time.
○ Do shared writing to demonstrate one of our mistakes - consequences - lessons.

Allow them to do so in pairs...
Allow students the rest of the time to write in their notebooks, encouraging them
to think of another mistake they would like to write about.
