The more involved the students are with the words, the more they will absorb the information. I will have the students highlight the words in the story. Afterwards, I will have the students provide a hypothesis on what they believe the word means. I will then identify the correct meaning of the word. Because the students are only first graders and knowing that just saying the word isn’t enough, I will have them draw pictures of the words.

In the deep waters of Seaworld and the deep readings in Amusing Ourselves to Death, Neli Postman states many opinions towards his ideas about how the television impacts society and the documentary Blackfish may be one to fit under one of those categories. Blackfish, a documentary created by Manny O Productions and CNN Films, produced this film with the goal of shedding light on the treatment of orcas in captivity, specifically focusing on Tilikum’s living conditions and the incidents of aggression towards trainers at SeaWorld.

I used a “quiz” as a warm up and had the students draw four lines: Angry, happy, sad, and content. I gave it as a quiz but then went on to show them how many of the students had similar lines, and how we all have an idea of how certain lines might look. This was a fun part of the class for the students as they got to show off the lines they had made and the reasons for making them. This was the beginning of my elements of design lesson and “hook” to get the students interested in the upcoming lesson. After notes covering the other elements of design, I went on to assign a monochromatic collage.

I hope to give Ability Sorting a rejoinder into teaching methods, and show it in a new light. School classes have many special students, but not every student is where the class may be. It’s a well-known problem of the faster-paced kids are bored, and possibly failing due to lack of stimulation, and some kids are struggling to understand the course being taught.
