Design an original lesson for students in the first, second or third grade (using the attached WGU Lesson Plan Format) for each of the following two writing styles: Note: These two lessons should form an integrated unit of instruction. 1. A narrative writing lesson (stressing the telling of a story) a. Explain how you would use the six traits writing model as an assessment if these students were in your own classroom. b. Describe two items you would use in your classroom environment to encourage narrative writing. 2. An expository writing lesson (informing the reader of a topic that would include facts, such as book reports or research reports) a. Describe two items you would use in your classroom environment to encourage expository writing. B. Design an original activity (using the attached WGU Lesson Activity Format) where students learn an irregular spelling rule (e.g., child/children). C. Design an original read-and-describe activity (using the attached WGU Lesson Activity Format) where students read one of their writing samples to a peer and then the peer describes the content of the writing to the class. Note: In both lesson plans and activities, students should be encouraged to look for correct punctuation, grammar, spelling, and capitalization of words. D. When you use sources, include all in-text citations and references in APA format.

Java, you are getting closer. You now have completed the `Lesson Activity` portion but still need to work on the `Lesson Planning` you have a good start.. and did complete the first portion under # which was the Prerequisite Skills Needed for the Lesson.
From there you need to continue down the numbers adn fill them in with teh lesson knowledge (use my example I uploaded for guidance) theses are the ones you skipped......

2. Presentation of New Information or Modeling:
(e.g., term definitions, concepts, processes and/or approaches)

3. Guided Practice:
(e.g., teacher directed, scaffolding, check for student understanding including any questions to ask or anticipate from students)

4. Independent Student Practice:
(e.g., teacher monitored, check for student understanding including any questions to ask or anticipate from students)

5. Culminating or Closing Procedure/Activity/Event:
(e.g., review terms, concepts, and/or learning process; establish connections to the next lesson; check for student understanding including any questions to ask or anticipate from students)

*I do appreciate your effort on this.
