This lesson plan aims to teach students about travel through the story "A Shipwrecked Sailor" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. The teacher will first engage students by having them create and present their own stories based on images of shipwrecks. Students will then predict the name of the lesson and learn about the author. One student will read the passage aloud while others mark unfamiliar words, which the teacher will then define. Finally, the teacher assigns students to write from the perspective of the sailor in the story.
