the class period, that student will be told to either add more similes and metaphors to their story or add another paragraph. Also, the student who finishes early will be told to proofread the story one more time and check it with the rubric to make sure that everything required has been put in the story. The extension for the whole class will be similar. If the class finishes early, they will be told to add more similes and metaphors to their story. Also, they will be instructed to add additional paragraphs. If they finished with only a few minutes left in the lesson they will be instructed to read for AR. Any student who finishes early will be allowed to illustrate their story and add additional touches to make it creative. Remediation for an individual student would be to work with the student one on one while the rest of the class is writing their stories. The teacher will go through the definitions and examples again and then have the student explain why each example is a simile or metaphor. If this still does not help the student understand, the teacher will help the student to make his or her own examples. Remediation for the whole class will be similar. The teacher will go over the definitions for each example. With each example the teacher will have one student choose which one it is and then explain why it is that one. Then the teacher will go over the example again by saying which one it is and why it is that one. HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT(S): The homework is to complete the story as specified on the rubric.
