5. Bigger-picture prompt: SS write an analytical response to text based on chapters 1,2,3 of Crow Country. T. guides and models the final answer.
6. Extension Question using the TEEL formula. T. reviews the TEEL acronym and asks students to structure their own responses for submission. The task asks students to use their prior-knowledge from chapters 1-3 of Crow Country to establish an answer.
7. Reflection of success criteria and learning intentions at the end of the PPT, here the focus is to ask students to take accountability for their understanding and let you know what they easily understood and what they require more assistance with.

I hope that this lesson will help inspire your students and take the guesswork out of teaching Crow Country. Best of luck!
