7th gradebookselectionresourceslesson
This lesson plan introduces 7th grade students to new book titles and resources for finding books on their own, such as book trailers, author websites, and blogs. The lesson aims to remind students of different book genres and provide new tools for independent book searches. During a 20-minute session, the teacher will get students' attention with a discussion on book selection, then demonstrate various online resources through a projector. While there is no in-class practice, students are invited to apply what they learned on their own time. The lesson appeals to visual and interpersonal learners and assesses understanding through pre- and post-lesson polling.
