Lesson Opening:
I will ask students to each right down two of their favorite things to do. This can
be a sport or activity, anything. Then I will ask students to try and put those two
words together. Then I will ask if anyone wants to share their combined word.
Some of the examples might be compound words and if they are I will point them
out and explain why they work. The other examples that do not work will be
pointed out and explained why they do not work as a compound word.

How did the students perform on this assessment? To what degree did they
achieve mastery toward the lesson objective(s)?
How will you provide opportunities for remediation and extension?

voice to entice the students. I also thought that my anchor chart was a good
presentation of the concept. Some things that I changed was my activity and I am now
using it with technology and presenting it in a way that students see examples and
