NTEQ LESSON PLAN
LESSON TITLE: ADVENTURES IN NONFICTION
SUBJECT AREA(S): ENGLISH 10
GRADE LEVEL: 10TH
LESSON SUMMARY
Students need to be skilled readers of nonfictional texts. To do so students should understand that
background knowledge may be necessary to understand and comprehend many nonfictional texts.
Today’s lesson will prepare students to read a nonfictional text and, because of prior knowledge done
through research, make connections to the texts to improve comprehension. Students will
collaboratively research information on Mount Everest and/or climbing Mount Everest before reading
the nonfiction text Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
By the end of this lesson, the students will:
 Using a PC/ cellular device complete guided question stems collaboratively and present their findings
to the class using either Power Point/ Prezi with at least 80% accuracy.
 Have the background knowledge needed to better comprehend and make connections to the reading
selection.

SPECIFY PROBLEM
Today we are going to investigate Mount Everest. What challenges would you face if you were to add climbing
Mount Everest to your bucket list?
RESULTS PRESENTATION
Students will collaboratively present their findings to the class and assess their peer’s comprehension of
information presented.
MULTIDIMENSIONAL ACTIVITIES
Briefly describe the lesson activities. Begin with the Lesson Introduction or how you will introduce the problem and how you will
address prerequisite skills, share learning objectives, and provide needed information. As you describe the computer activities, please
include what students need to do before they go the computers, while they are at the computers, and what they do after they finish
computer work. Descriptions of the supporting activities follow the computer activities. This form has space for three computer and
three supporting activities. When you design your lesson, include the appropriate number of each for your particular lesson. After
these activities are planned, describe the Culminating Activity, or how main ideas will be reviewed and/or final presentations given.
When these components are planned describe the rotation plan – how will students rotate between the activities.

CULMINATING ACTIVITY – Briefly describe how main ideas will be reviewed and/or final presentations given.
Using a PC and a SmartBoard/ Data Projector students will present their Power Point / Prezi
presentations to the class. Group members will take turns speaking/ presenting their findings to the
class. At the end of each presentation the presenters will evaluate their peers with 5-8 questions on
the information presented using Kahoot.it website (Personal Response System). Students will evaluate
their presentations in Kahoot.it. Teacher will assess using rubric.
