Synopsis: In this curriculum unit students will dive into the process of using different strategies to develop better comprehension when reading. The students will read two stories and will learn to answer basic questions about the stories (such as what, when, who etc.), analyze different characters and compare and contrast. All these will be supported by the addition of movement in order to address different learning styles and bring alive the text by involving the body. Creating a dance about the two stories and the main characters will be a new element and experience for my students. The purpose is for students to learn to think about the stories in more imaginative ways. These movement experiences will help the students better perform the tasks of compare and contrast, an abstract concept that is often difficult for them to understand.
