 Students will be able to correctly write the Students will practice writing -et words on
letters/ words ending in -et their whiteboards following the correct lines

/Resources: (List materials, include any online or book references and resources)

● Morning meeting and lesson slideshow

● Jack Hartman youtube video on -et word endings
● Virtual anchor chart
● Dry erase white boards, markers, and erasers

Plan for set-up/distribution/cleanup of materials:

● Students are virtual at home and will have all the supplies needed with them
● I will tell students that they will need their dry erase boards, markers, and erasers in the
beginning of morning meeting so that they will be prepared

Step by Step plan (numbered):

1. Lesson beginning: I will begin the lesson by introducing the -et word family and talking
about what sound it makes and what letters make that sound (et). Then, I will play a Jack
Hartman video on the word family -et
2. After the video, I will be creating a virtual anchor chart with the class. I will ask students
for words that belong in the -et family and type them in as they say them. While doing
this I will repeat the words so that students hear the word family sound at the end
3. After we come up with at least 10 words, we will move on to practice writing the words
4. First we will choose which word to write and I will slowly sound it out so that students
hear all the sounds
5. Then, I will ask students for a volunteer to spell the word for us
6. Then, we will write the word together as a class and the students will follow along as they
are written on the projector
7. This will continue for the rest of the words as well
8. Closing Activities: To close this activity I will call on 3 students to tell me words in the
-et family

Differentiation Notes

● Content: All students will have the same content

● Process: All students will be at home so without disrupting the zoom I will be observing
to make sure everyone has what they need and is doing what they are supposed to be
doing. I will do this by having check ins and asking them to hold certain things up to
make sure they are following along and have the supplies
● Product: All the students' products will look similar as they are following along
practicing writing words ending -et
